DHTML and XML are not HTML. DHTML is just a buzzword for using Javascript to create animated effects. XML quite different than HTML.
Just learn regular HTML. HTML 5 is the upcoming newest version and would be good to learn. XHTML was the best “version” before that, but it doesn’t really matter. Most browsers will accept pretty much anything.
Just Google search for HTML tutorials and you’ll find tons of resources, or buy a book on Amazon or get one at the library. Also start looking at source codes for web sites and figure out how other developers create sites.
Focus on XHTML, it is the most widely used version currently, HTML 5 will be coming into full storm in the near future but i would still recommend XHTML.
XML and HTML are similar in that they are both Markup Languages. But they are not the same thing. and dont worry about DHTML.
For real, this! Easy as pie.
I agree with delta77 and soni1 that w3schools.com is a very good for learning but I learning html on this html tutorials I think they are even better…
