Actually XML will NOT be replacing HTML.
XML was designed to describe data and to focus on what data is.
HTML is about displaying information, XML is about describing information.
HTML was designed to display data and to focus on how data looks.
XML will NOT be replacing HTML. XHTML will though.
XHTML is the next generation of HTML.
XHTML is almost identical to HTML 4.01
XHTML is a stricter and cleaner version of HTML.
Basically XHTML consists of all the elements in HTML 4.01 combined with the syntax of XML. Its MUCH cleaner - less chance of the site looking screwed in some browsers and fine in others.
I will add that I build all my pages in XHTML.
If you want your sites to be cross browser compliant in the future, start learning the XHTML standard now.
As far as DHTML, all it really is is HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
