DHTML (DynamicHTML) is a combination of HTML, JavaScript and CSS.

Don't forget the DOM :)

A bit more info for Terra.

To make HTML "dynamic" you can eg use JS to change the CSS applied to a piece of HTML. Which piece you are targeting is specified via a DOM.

JS = JavaScript/JScript/EMCA-script
CSS = Cascading Style Sheets
DOM = Document Object Model

CSS & DOM you find at www.w3.org

The JS (EMCA-script 262) is a bit difficoult to read, so the documentation at http://devedge.netscape.com + bit's and pieces from www.microsoft.com is probably a better bet.
A good JS tutorial book can come in handy too.
