WML pages can be displayed in a ____ browser.

  1. WAP

  2. Web

  3. Mobile

  4. All
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

To answer this question, the user needs to know what WML stands for and what types of browsers can display WML pages.

WML stands for Wireless Markup Language, a markup language used for creating content for mobile devices.

Now, let's go through each option and explain why it is right or wrong:

A. WAP: This option is partially correct. WAP (Wireless Application Protocol) is a technical standard for accessing information over a mobile wireless network. WML is the markup language used to create content for WAP-enabled devices. Therefore, WML pages can be displayed in a WAP-enabled browser.

B. Web: This option is incorrect. WML pages are not designed for display in a standard web browser. Instead, they are designed for display on mobile devices.

C. Mobile: This option is partially correct. WML pages are designed for display on mobile devices and can be displayed in a browser on a mobile device.

D. All: This option is incorrect. WML pages are not designed for display in a standard web browser, so they cannot be displayed on all types of browsers.

Therefore, the answer is: A. WAP
