Jeremy Keith declares: DHTML is dead. In
case you missed my rant about the term DHTML
last week, I agree: it's time to dump the term DHTML. It started out as a vaguely-defined marketing term that combined
CSS, HTML, JavaScript, a proprietary DOM, and downloadable fonts, and now it is thrown around to mean just about
anything.
So, I'm going to avoid the term in the future and use one of the more logical ones: JavaScript or DOM scripting.

4. DOM scripting is better - JavaScript might mean client or server side scripting, or shell scripting, or anything, really.

1. ...So does this mean the slogan "Putting the 'D' in DHTML" will change? :)
