WMLScript Standard Libraries Quick Reference
The standard libraries form an important part of the WMLScript scripting language. They provide a lot of useful functions. Some of which are impossible to be implemented by our own. For example, to obtain the value of a WML variable, the only choice is to use the setVar() function of the WMLBrowser standard library. WMLScript contains six standard libraries in total. This reference provides a description for each of the functions. Plenty of example scripts are included to illustrate the usage of the functions.
Note that some functions of the standard libraries are only available on mobile devices that can perform floating-point operations. To learn the details, see "Checking Whether Mobile Devices Support Floating-point Numbers and Operations" of our WMLScript tutorial.
