Session Summary

Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 delivered a new technology, dynamic HTML (DHTML), an open, language-independent object model for standard HTML. With this fascinating technology, content in different Internet Explorer windows and frames can interact in powerful ways by scripting with the object model. However, because a browser can simultaneously display unrelated documents in its various windows and frames, certain rules must be enforced to protect data integrity and privacy of information. During this presentation, we will describe how and why these restrictions apply in the DHTML Object Model. We will also describe a way to create cross-frame scripting-capable pages with HTML applications.

This is a Level 200 session that was recorded April 3, 2001 and presented by Teodora Stanev. Teodora Stanev has been a support professional with Microsoft Developer Support for two years. Initially, she was with the Visual Basic Client team, but is now with the Internet Client Development team.
