Question
How can we prove that in a web page DHTML has used?

Answer
We can tell DHTML is being used in a web page by looking at the behavior on that page.  For example, go to: http://www.odeo.com/

Now click the link in the upper right-hand corner: Sign Up.  When you click that link, a popup div occurs.  If you right click on that popup div, you'll notice that it's not a flash movie or other form of media.  It's JavaScript that's making this happen.  If you disable JavaScript (using the web developer toolbar, for example), the popup div will no longer work.  This proves that DHTML is being used here to achieve this effect.

I hope this helps, Mitali.  Go here for more information: http://webdesign.about.com/od/dhtml/a/aa030298.htm
