Understanding a WAP web site
While Web sites on the World Wide Web (WWW) are thought of as a
"book" comprised of a group of interlinked pages, WAP web sites can be
thought of as a "deck of interlinked cards."
Some cards are comprised of text and hyperlinks. Other cards may require
user input (entering text or numbers, selecting items from a list, etc.).
Some pages may even contain low-resolution graphic images.

Because your service provider (as well as WAP services providers around
the world) are free to employ a variety of programming techniques, each
"card" viewed could contain a variety of elements. The following section
is designed to familiarize you with some of the most common WAP
elements and how to get the most out of your browser.
