Term · Environment · MLC-T-ENV-013745

Its focus is on the structure of a document rather than its appearance. Web developers sidestep HTML's limitations by using techniques such as advanced Web programming (DHTML, JavaScript, Java, ASP), to improve the presentation of their Web pages.
2. The set of markup symbols and codes inserted in a file intended for display on a World Wide Web browser page.
