alt Hacker NewsThis post got me curious about how the term DHTML died so quickly. Apparently we hit peak DHTML in 2001, according to Google Ngram Viewer.

It still irks me when people call pages with JavaScript on "static", when they're clearly dynamic.

I’ve always remembered it as XHTML lemmings, didn’t know dhtml was a term at all!
Such an interesting bubble of time. JavaScript, CSS and the ability to modify the DOM… but no AJAX requests. I remember using iframes to load remote content. What a mess.
