| WAE |
The
WAE (Wireless Application
Protocol) is a part of the WAP protocol, which is mostly
used by developers for WAP applications or WAP services.
It includes specifications of WML, WMLscript and
WTAI (Wireless Telephony Application Interface). It
is also responsible for the main functions of WAP
applications.
|
| WAP |
WAP, which means Wireless
Application Protocol, is based on WML (Wireless Markup
Language). It is very similar to HTML (Hypertext
Markup Language). It has been developed by the WAP Forum
which now has more than 200 of the biggest companies in
the communication business.
|
| WAP Gateway |
Gateway between the internet (WAP Proxy) and the
mobile radio network.
|
| WBMP |
Bitmap graphic format which is especially designated for WML cards. Unlike
Bitmaps WBMPs only have a depth of one bit, which means
that they are only black and white.
|
| WAP
Converter |
A
software tool which converts HTML source code into WML
source code. This is not very complicated to program, but
the displaying of a big page on a small display is very
difficult. A special problem is the convertion of frames,
databases etc.

XFDL
(Extensible Forms Description Language) is a language
for online forms, which have been developed by
UWI.com in collaboration with W3C.
XFDL is highly related to XML and makes the filling out of
complex forms easier. A special feature is that you can
change entries after they have been made. This has been
the reason for many companies to refrain from e-commerce
until now. The new language will work with any
browser.
|

with HyTime (Hypermedia and
Timebased Structured Language).
|

developers which work with object technology to exchange
program code clearly defined over the internet.
|
| XML |
XML (Extensible/Extended Markup Language) is a so-called meta
language, which means that it describes other languages.
XML is a new standard. Unlike EDI XML is neutral, flexible
and easier to handle for data exchange. XML is the new standard for databases
and the internet and revolutionizes the WWW already
today.
|

XQL (Extensible Query Language) is a language for XML documents.
Jonathan Robie has been the main developer for this
language which is another extensions of XSL.
|
| XSLT |
XSLT
(Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformation) makes a
convertion of XML documents into another XML structure or
some other formats possible. It also helps to divide XML
documents again. . With help of XSLT chaptertitles
of a document can be transformed into another XML document
which could be the contents page.
|
| XSL |
XSL
(Extented/Extensible Style-sheet Language) is a
standard from the W3C. The use of XSL is another step in
direction of modular applicatios. XSL develops itself into
a full-fledged programming language with the integration
of JAVA and JAVASCRIPT. An XML compatible browser can
display documents immediately without having to generate
masks. With help of style sheets EDI data is readable with
any web browser. For the formatting of documents there are
the alternatives of HTML-CSS and HTML-DSSSL or
XLink / Xpointer.
