Then I'd suggest you to more research into ARIA and frameworks like dojo and openlaszlo Also firefox instanciates these things as actual controls, so this is a rather uninformed opinion that it's just javascript and dhtml.

This is just a nice word but only that. Those so called controls are nothing more than simple Javascript code, generated manually or by a Javascript library that draw menus, tree views, WYSIWYG editors or other things. The result is a dynamicly generated HTML control or a dynamicly generated html link or simple text. I haven't seen anything else than that.
