As another example of the expanding areas, of course, is the Experts Exchange site itself. When you click on 'my open questions', the box smoothly opens up to reveal more information.

Hi experts<br />
<br />
What programming technology would I need in order to add drag and drop capability to a web page? I'm also interested in areas that auto expand depending on user interaction - think Facebook, when expanding the comments on a status update - the page elongates with smooth scrolling to accomodate the new information. <br />
<br />
I'm proficient with PHP and know a little Javascript and HTML. Can I achieve it with these two technologies or would I need something like HTML5 and CSS3?<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance

How can I enable drag and drop on a web page and have dynamic elements?

Web development can range from developing the simplest static single page of plain text to the most complex web-based internet applications, electronic businesses, and social network services using a wide variety of languages and standards, including the familiar HTML, JavaScript and jQuery, ASP and ASP.NET, PHP, ColdFusion, CSS, PHP, Flex and Flash, but also the implementation of a broad list of standards including XML, WSDL, SSDL, VoiceXML and many more.

Web Languages and Standards

Web development software is used to create websites for both the Internet and intranets. Software can be either locally installed or operated through a cloud interface, and ranges in complexity from simple text editors to full-fledged integrated development environments (IDEs) that include graphics, video, audio, scripting and database support.

Web Development Software

Web Components are a set of standards currently being produced by Google engineers as a W3C specification that allow for the creation of reusable widgets or components in web documents and web applications. The intention behind them is to bring component-based software engineering to the World Wide Web. The components model allows for encapsulation and interoperability of individual HTML elements. Support for Web Components is present in Chrome and Opera and is in Firefox (with a manual configuration change). Microsoft's Internet Explorer has not implemented any Web Components specifications yet. Web Components consist of 4 main elements: Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, HTML Imports and HTML Templates.
