Wireless Application Protocol

WAP is an open specification that offers a standard method to access Internet based content and services from wireless devices such as mobile phones and PDAs (Personal Digital Assistants).

The WAP model is very similar to the traditional desktop Internet. The mobile device has embeded browser software that connects to a WAP Gateway (software infrastructure residing in the Operator's Network that optomises the transmission of content for the wireless network) and makes requests for information from web servers in the normal form of a URL. The content for wireless devices can be stored on any web server on the Internet. Content must be formatted suitably for the mobile phone's small screen and low bandwidt/high latency connection. Content is written in a markup language called WML (Wireless Markup Language). WMLScript enables client side intelligence.
