A trivial intersection of two topics (DOM and scripting), seemingly an attempt to generalize JavaScript or Dynamic HTML but lacking notability in this context. Possible copyvio, current text seems to be taken from google book [1] Ham Pastrami (talk) 06:17, 18 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to Dynamic HTML. As far as I can tell, "DOM scripting" and "Dynamic HTML" mean more or less the same thing. Whoever wrote this article claims there is a difference between them, but has provided no reliable source for the claimed distinction, which makes me think the claimed distinction is just their personal opinion (i.e. WP:OR).

  • Redirect to Dynamic HTML. Per SJK, the terms are equivalent, and statements to the contrary WP:OR.Dialectric (talk) 14:09, 26 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
