Overview
Dynamic HTML promises to be an incredibly powerful new scripting language for developers. An emerging standard under consideration by the W3 consortium, it will provide Web designers with the ability to create "deep" Web pages, capable of responding instantaneously to a user's actions. The advent of the document object model means the beginning of a new kind of document -- one that is infinitely programmable and capable of providing a complete user interface.Dynamic HTML: A Primer walks developers through one of the hottest areas in the browser wars, explaining the differences between the browser implementations and how to avoid getting caught in the middle.
