HTML Components

In today's world, HTML Components is a topic that has become increasingly relevant and has generated widespread interest in various areas of society. Whether due to its impact on everyday life, its influence on popular culture or its importance in academia, HTML Components has captured the attention of experts, enthusiasts and even those who are just beginning to explore this phenomenon. As HTML Components continues to transform and evolve, it is imperative to understand its complexities, implications and ramifications in different contexts. This article will take a deeper look at HTML Components, exploring its origins, current influence, and possible future developments.
Not to be confused with Web Components.

HTML Components (HTCs) are a legacy technology[1] used to implement components in script as Dynamic HTML (DHTML) "behaviors"[2] in the Microsoft Internet Explorer web browser. Such files typically use an .htc extension and the "text/x-component" MIME type.[3]

An HTC is typically an HTML file (with JScript / VBScript) and a set of elements that define the component. This helps to organize behavior encapsulated in script modules that can be attached to parts of a Webpage DOM.

Example

<body>
<ul>
  <li style="behavior:url(hilite.htc)">Example</li>
</ul>
</body>

In this example, the li element is given the behavior defined by "hilite.htc" (a file that contains JScript code defining highlight/lowlight actions on mouse over). The same hilite.htc can then be given to any element in the HTML page - thus encapsulating the behavior defined by this file.
