| Note: | VRML is an acronym for "Virtual Reality Modeling Language". It is the International Standard (ISO/IEC 14772) file format for describing interactive 3D multimedia on the Internet. |
| The World Wide Web isn't a linear experience like leafing through and reading a book. The Web enables you to jump around from place to place. But in most cases, you jump from one page-based site to another. HTML is the specification for page-oriented Web navigation. VRML is a 3D-navigation specification, developed by Silicon Graphics, Intervista Software, and other organizations and individuals that enable the creation of 3D sites. |
