Developing Wireless Applications Using WAP/WML

( DTW-210 )

Course Description

The Developing Wireless Applications Using WAP/WML course provides students with skills to design and create wireless applications with Wireless Markup Language (WML). Students also learn how to deploy a WML application on a Web server in a Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) environment.

This course provides practical exercises to demonstrate how to write WML code and how to view the code dynamically in browsers that emulate the behavior and appearance of Nokia, Ericsson, and Motorola devices used worldwide. Special emphasis is given to presentation differences between WML browsers.
