Using DHTML and the XML DSO, you can create dynamic Web-based user services components that use XML. Since DHTML runs on the client machine, it can manipulate the user services components without making a trip to the Web server. The DHTML object model provides access to the components of the Web documents. Combined with the events associated with DHTML objects, this access enables Web developers to create Web applications that contain executable scripts and react to user input. DHTML Behaviors make DHTML functionality more accessible and easier to use in a document. You can also use XML DSO to bind XML data to HTML elements so that you can display the elements and attributes contained in the XML data.

In Chapter 14, we will use DHTML and HTCs together to create client-side business services components that can validate user input.
