Web browser - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Most browsers natively support a variety of formats in addition to HTML, such as the JPEG, PNG and GIF image formats, and can be extended to support more through the use of plugins.

While the Macintosh scene too has traditionally been dominated by Internet Explorer and Netscape, the future appears to belong to Apple's Safari which is based on Apple's WebCore layout engine, derived from the KHTML layout engine of the open source Konqueror browser. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Internet_browser   (1226 words)

Last check: 2007-10-26) A browser is a computer program that resides on your computer enabling you to use the computer to view WWW documents and access the Internet taking advantage of text formatting, hypertext links, images, sounds, motion, and other features.

ongoing · The Door Is Ajar Item: There won’t be an Internet Explorer 7; if you want a better browser, you’ll have to pay for the next release of Windows, which is scheduled for release in 2005, and most corporate desktops won’t get there for a couple of years after that.
