    dhtml I don't know actually,
    If you learn HTML, you will learn the basics, but if you make a website try always to maintain the XHTML standards

    DHTML or dynamic HTML is just an umbrella term for modifying the DOM using Javascript. It doesn't really mean anything.

    They're all basically the same. They are markup languages for web browsers. They're all based on HTML. DHTML came 2nd - it just means Dynamic HTML, which means it has some javascript in it to make it more dynamic (like things changing on the screen). XHTML is more current. It's just a new standard in writing HTML. All good web developers code with XHTML in either strict or loose formats. XHTML has a few differences with the tags, and follows some rules when coding.

    I'm guessing from this question that your not a web developer, so really, you don't need to worry about which of these formats a pages is marked up in.
