A task specifies what action to perform when an
event, like entering a card or selecting a link, occurs.
Go Task
The <go> task represents the action of switching to a new
card.
<?xml version="1.0"?>

Go To Test
<go href="test.wml"/>
</anchor>
</p>
</card>
</wml>

Prev Task
The <prev> task represents the action of going back to the
previous card.

Previous Page
<prev/>
</anchor>
</p>
</card>
</wml>
|
Refresh Task
The <refresh> task refreshes some specified card variables.
If any of the variables are shown on the screen, this task also
refreshes the screen.
The example below uses an <anchor> tag to add a
"Refresh this page" link to the card. When the user
clicks on the link, he or she refreshes the page and the
value of the variable x will be set to 30:<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE wml PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD WML 1.1//EN"
"http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/wml_1.1.xml">
<wml>
<card>
<p>
<anchor>
Refresh this page
<go href="thispage.wml"/>
<refresh>
<setvar name="x" value="30"/>
</refresh>
</anchor>
</p>
</card>
</wml>

Noop Task
The <noop> task says that nothing should be done (noop stands
for "no operation"). This tag is used to override deck-level
elements.
The <do> tag can be used to activate a task when the user
clicks on a word/phrase on the screen.
The example below uses a <do> tag to add a "Back"
link to the card. When the user clicks on the "Back"
link, he or she should be taken back to the previous
card. But the <noop> tag prevents this operation; when
the user clicks on the "Back" link nothing will happen: <?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE wml PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD WML 1.1//EN"

<wml>
<card>
<p>
<do name="back" type="prev" label="Back">
<noop/>
</do>

</card>
