I have not worked extensively on Client Side/Front End of the Application and I am trying to read about HTML, CSS and DOM but somehow am not able to figure out difference between them and so would really appreciate if someone can:

  1. Explain me in simple English how does HTML, CSS and DOM work ?
  2. How do they relate to each other from Client Side Technology point of view ?

Update
I have gone through wikipedia articles but not able to clearly understand working of DOM.

Thanks.

    HTML is what is on your website (headings, lists, tables)

    CSS is what those things look like (borders, colours, font sizes)

    DOM is how you access those things through javascript (getting nodes, adding new elements, changing their style)

    Here is an example of the 3 working together (doesn’t seem to work in ie)
