WMLScript
WMLScript is a client side script
language based on ECMAScript. It might seem a lot like JavaScript, and in a very general
way it is meant for the same type of application which is to actually run simple code on
the client side rather than just render a display which is the job of the markup language.
WMLScript has obviously been modified to fit the limitations of the WAP environment. Another difference is that WMLScript compilation units need to be compiled into the WML Script byte code before it is run on a WAP client. Such a WAP browser must contain a WMLScript Virtual Machine (VM) to run the compiled script.
