MORE INFORMATION

Dynamic HTML is a browser specific object model that enables programmers to create Web pages that are dynamic and interactive. You can create Dynamic HTML with any of the following programming languages:

  • JavaScript
  • JScript
  • VBScript
  • C++
  • Java

Dynamic HTML removes programmer limitations on access to the Web document. Dynamic HTML in Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 empowers developers with the following features:
  • HTML 4.0 and advanced cascading style sheets
  • Full access to the document's structure
  • Dynamic style
  • Dynamic contents
  • Instant user response
  • Client/server web pages
  • Multimedia and animation effects

Microsoft FrontPage 98 utilizes the Dynamic HTML object model in Internet Explorer 4.x. You can create text animations, cascading style sheets, and collapsible outlines.
