This post got me curious about how the term DHTML died so quickly. Apparently we hit peak DHTML in 2001, according to Google Ngram Viewer.

Such an interesting bubble of time. JavaScript, CSS and the ability to modify the DOM… but no AJAX requests. I remember using iframes to load remote content. What a mess.

I’ve always remembered it as XHTML lemmings, didn’t know dhtml was a term at all!

That is just a rehost, as I know the person who created that, a Dutch guy. The original is not hosted anymore due to Brein, a software IP/piracy agency.

Trip down memory lane, I just remembered the sadness I felt when I finished the level where you have to use blockers to guide the descent but when all the lemmings are saved, you have to self destruct the blockers to win.
