I keep seeing DHTML & XHTML mentioned. I'm not really all that sure what the difference is between DHTML, XHTML and HTML.

Hi,

HTML is a Hyper Text Markup Language which is used to display the internet website contents on the internet browsers. This is the common language to develop the web site pages.

DHTML is Dynamic HTML(DHTML) which will be used to display the dynamic web site pages. It is not a standard defined by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), it is a "marketing term" that was used by Netscape and Microsoft to describe the new technologies the 4.x generation browsers would support. Dynamic HTML is a combination of technologies to make Web pages dynamic. To most people, Dynamic HTML means a combination of HTML 4.0, Style Sheets and JavaScript.

XHTML is similar to the HTML but follows the rules of XML. XHTML is used to be compatible with XML programming. Following the rules now would make it possible to include XML programming in the future. It is not difficult to change HTML pages to XHTML, but it can be time-consuming. Finding all line breaks and images to include closing tags, converting any uppercase to lowercase and any other incompatibility can be a nuisance. Using a find and replace program can allow you to edit your code faster, but you still have to reupload all those changes. It is recommended that programmers try to remember these rules to comply with W3C recommendations, so the web pages appear correctly in most browsers. The main differences between HTML and XHTML is the case-sensitivity, the need to use closing tags for all tags, the need to use quotes around all attribute values and that all attributes must be in lowercase as XML requires.

thanks

HTML
HTML is the lingua franca for publishing hypertext on the World Wide Web. It is a non-proprietary format based upon SGML, and can be created and processed by a wide range of tools, from simple plain text editors - you type it in from scratch- to sophisticated WYSIWYG authoring tools. HTML uses tags such as <h1> and </h1> to structure text into headings, paragraphs, lists, hypertext links etc. Here is a 10-minute guide for newcomers to HTML. W3C's statement of direction for HTML is given on the HTML Activity Statement. See also the page on our work on the next generation of Web forms, and the section on Web history.

DHTML
DHTML is dynamic HTML. Basically, DHTML is a combination of different technologies to make your HTML interactive. Common languages used are HTML (of course), Java and Stylesheets.

XHTML
The Extensible HyperText Markup Language (XHTML™) is a family of current and future document types and modules that reproduce, subset, and extend HTML, reformulated in XML. XHTML Family document types are all XML-based, and ultimately are designed to work in conjunction with XML-based user agents. XHTML is the successor of HTML, and a series of specifications has been developed for XHTML.

* HTML - HyperText Markup Language
* DHTML - Dynamic HyperText Markup Language
* XHTML - eXtended HyperText Markup Language


Html is the basic language to create the web pages.
The second is an unoffical name. It normally means HTML combined with JavaScript and CSS to provide greater response to user action (such as mousing over an image and triggering some event like the appearance of a menu).

XHTML is HTML reformulated according to the rules of XML (eXtensible Markup Language). It's almost identical to HTML 4.01, but follows stricter rules, such as all tags being in lowercase, no missing end tags, all attributes in quotes, etc.

DHTML allows scripting languages to change variables in a web page's definition language, which in turn affects the look and function of otherwise "static" HTML page content, after the page has been fully loaded and during the viewing process. Thus the dynamic characteristic of DHTML is the way it functions while a page is viewed, not in its ability to generate a unique page with each page load
