DHTML is not really a technology per se, it's more of a marketing term. In practice,
DHTML = HTML + CSS + Javascript + DOM Next generation is looking a little different, but not radically so. Call it DWeb - DWeb = XHTML + SVG + XForms + XUL(?) + XSLT + CSS + DOM + Javascript If you look at the Mozilla implementation of SVG, what is most intriguing about it is that its DOM is directly accessible from the web page at the same level that XHTML is. This in turn means that you can have graphics that obey the same rules (and interact directly in the same fashion) as XHTML. Our expectations of SVG have been shaped by the fact that up until now most implementations have been closed box implementations where the boundary between the SVG and the rest of the document is very clear. Break out of that, and SVG becomes a very exciting technology indeed. -- Kurt Jim Ley wrote: > > "dellscreek" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message > news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > >A very candid comment. > > I'm not sure it's different from anything I've ever said before, SVG like > Flash are niche technologies, they do specific things very well, and > other > things really badly - if you try to write complete web-applications in > these > techs, you get a mess.
