13 Nov 2001 This tutorial is designed to assist Web developers who need tight control over the placement of content on their pages, but who understand the need to separate content from presentation in order to improve compliance with standards and ease of maintenance.
Prerequisites
The tutorial assumes that you are already comfortable using HTML and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). Basic knowledge of JavaScript is helpful, but not required, for understanding the scripting examples. You can gain a thorough understanding of the topic without trying out the scripting examples.
System requirements
You will need JavaScript enabled on your browser. This tutorial will help you understand the topic even if you only read through the examples without trying them out. If you want to try the examples as you go through the tutorial, make sure you have the following tools installed and working properly:
- A text editor: DHTML files are simply text. To create and read them, a text editor is all you need.
- Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5, or other CSS2-capable browser: Not all browsers are able to exploit all of the capabilities of dynamic positioning. The examples in this tutorial use IE 5.5.
