As the Web matures, with concepts such as Web 2.0, both Interactive and Dynamic behaviors are more prevalent in web pages, far from old the days of Static Web Pages. Here are the differences: * Static pages do not change over time, and is not customized for individual users. HTML is used to create static pages. * An Interactive web page can respond to the user by changing contents. For example, in a page with 2 questions, the second question can change depending on the user’s answer to the first question. Javascript is typically used to create interactive behavior. * A dynamic web page can change from day to day. For example, a news site is dynamic because the content changes often. A database back-end is typically required for dynamic behavior. AJAX is essentially combining Interactive and Dynamic behaviors.
