Create rich client apps with the DOM (17 Feb 2004)
Yes, developers can start to have their cake and eat it too, as the chains of the standard Web application -- a thin client working in conjunction with a server -- continue to break. Today you can create applications with rich interactive functionality that are easily deployed and upgraded on the Web. This is a result of the development, acceptance, and adherence to standards regarding the Document Object Model (DOM). UI designers and developers can leverage the DOM's accessibility and manipulability through JavaScript and cascading style sheets (CSS) to create systems that users can manage more efficiently.
