Character Size

WML does not have very good layout features. However, there are two tags which enable you to change the character size so that you can emphasise headings: <big> (bigger) and <small> (smaller).

Example:

<p>
One can write <big>bigger</big> or <small>smaller</small> than normal.
</p>

The result speaks for itself:

Don't overuse this effect. Reading on WAP devices is sometimes difficult because of the small size of their screens. If you excessively change the size of your texts, you could give visitors a hard time. Try to keep these tags for headings.
