    Where did you read that DHTML is an essential part of Ajax? Sounds like a hoax ;-)

    Some even claim that Ajax was branded away from DHTML since people knew that DHTML is not trivial.

    Personally I never enjoyed javascript and browser compability issues :D

    DHTML is vaguely defined as the useful combination of JavaScript and HTML/DOM. Since one of the main features of Ajax is to get data from the server and show it to the without reloading the entire page, it’s hard to do Ajax without JavaScript and HTML – thus DHTML is an essential part of Ajax. For now, that is. When XHTML2 becomes a reality and XFORMS really gets going we can say bye bye to DHTML as we now it.
