Action"One reason dynamic HTML (dHTML) is called dynamic is its ability
to heighten the interactive
experience. Because dHTML can utilize each action of the user (a mouseclick, a
rollover, a keystroke), it provides a rich and transparent way to process
this data. Before dHTML, form attributes would specify \"actions\" for a
common gateway interface (CGI) program to process. One of the powerful abilities of dHTML is to pass JavaScript through a browser as a part of a
form. For example, when a user checks a box within an HTML form, that click
of the mouse can be the action that launches a new window to give or
receive further data.
