11.3. <a> Element
The <a> element can also be used to create an anchor link to another card. The following WML markup code:
<anchor>
<go
href="linksEg1.wml"/>
Next
Card
</anchor>
is equivalent to the line:
<a href="linksEg1.wml">Next Card</a>
The <a> tag is a shortcut but not a replacement of the <go> tag. Some tasks in WML can only be done using the <go> tag but not the <a> tag. For example, to submit user data to the server, we need the <go></go> tag pair and the <postfield/> tag. We will describe how to submit user data to the server later in the "Submitting Form Data to the Server in WML" section.
