I develop WAP site by using VS.NET but I didn't see any WebControl to set
the browser back like a normal wap site or web site.

I mean if I am in PAGE 2, I need to have a button to click for back to PAGE
1.

How can I do?

Hi Sara,

You have several options:

a) If you create a site with a multi-card deck, most WAP
browsers will automatically render a back button.

b) If you want to guarantee a back button, you can explicitly
use the mobile:Link control on your page. For example:

<mobile:Link runat="server"
NavigateURL="page1.aspx">
Back
</mobile:Link>

c) A filter can be used to also provide navigation on a WAP site
via the <do> command. Here is a kb article on that very topic:
