HTML is the
language in which Web pages are written. HTML uses tags like <p> and
</p> to identify how text is to be structured and formatted within a
document.
XHTML is a
redevelopment and extension of HTML that makes HTML compatible with XML.
XHTML specifies a family of markup languages that are based on HTML but take
advantage of the simplicity, extensibility, and powerful toolset of XML.
CSS is a style sheet language that enables Web page writers to specify
presentation, sizing, and positioning properties of HTML and XML documents.
CSS is used to describe the appearance of a document in a manner that is
independent of its content. There are currently two versions of CSS (referred
to as CSS1 and
CSS2). CSS2
extends CSS1.
The DOM is a model
that describes the objects that are available within HTML and XML documents.
It describes these objects in a programming language-independent manner as a
system of interfaces. It defines the properties of these objects and methods
for accessing these objects. The objects can be accessed via programming
languages, such as JavaScript and Java.
target="external">JavaScript is a programming language for scripting Web
pages that was developed by Netscape. It has been standardized by the ECMA
and is referred to as ECMAScript. JavaScript has evolved into a general-
purpose scripting language - it is no longer limited to Web pages. Microsoft
has also developed a version of JavaScript that is named JScript.
DHTML is
a combination of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript that enables Web page content to
exhibit dynamic behavior. This is accomplished by dynamically changing the
properties of document objects in response to user actions and other
events.
