It’s amazing that the huge text documents, the tapes, home video tapes and even the digital video tapes can now be stored in just one webpage. This World Wide Web can be easily accessed by every one by using a web browser.
This technology helps not only to store various types of information but also access it by just getting our home computer connected to the internet.
When you plan to watch a movie or a digital video at your friend’s residence then earlier you had to carry those tapes with you, but now that we have this powerful technology that you can store them on a website and can watch it through any computer and where ever you want.
Earlier days if we want to hear selected music then we use to buy those tapes or cassettes and then also need a player so that you can play them. Now in this century you can not only download your favorite song or artist or album, but also their videos on your website and can store them and when ever you wish to hear can just click it. You will need a speaker attached to your system and that’s it. There are many built in players in the system or internet which will not require an external tape player.
People with their own personal computers have an idea about the computers function. And when you have an internet connection too then while using the net you will require a web browser which is software. Web browser enables you to see and also access with pictures and text documents, then those video file and also audio files and almost any information which is saved in your webpage or it can be even stored in your local area connection.
There is some thing called hyperlink. The web browser through these hyperlinks enables you to access any information from any website
Some most commonly used web browsers are Microsoft’s internet explorer and then you have mozilla fire fox. Netscape is also a web browser which was the first browser. Netscape Communication Company developed the Netscape browser. This browser was used earlier more because the web site visitors percentage was fairly more. But now there are many browsers and Netscape in the way lost its war in the user sharing aspect.
Netscape was almost there for nine long years from the year 1991 to the year 2000,and after that became a part of America on line.
In the year 1994 and month April Netscape took off on a good start by its initial public offerings. With in the initial months of their establishment itself they had a remarkable performance. Their IPO was faster than most of the big companies in the software industry. Netscape’s market values were above one billion dollars. Netscape made enough and more than enough money to take care of all the possible expenses.
Thus from the above history we can conclude that Netscape software firm was the best in the twenty century.

let me just say, i feel your pain, as do millions of other people out there…
coding a site that will look good on all the different browsers is tricky business. as you mentioned, different versions of IE will display things differently from each other, and differently than FF. it really depends on what you're trying to put on the site. IE and FF render styles from CSS differently, unfortunately. however, you can do conditional styles…which ease your pain a little bit.
if you make a style sheet for each browser, one for IE, one for FF, you can by default load the stylesheet that works well with FF, but you can override it with something like this:
<!–[if IE]>
load your style sheet
<![endif]–>
can you post anything specific you're trying to put on the site?

Safari owns
February 3rd, 2009 on 1:50 am
google chrome (statisticly the fastest, but no security)
Mozilla Firefox (the best and also very fast)
Internet Explorer ( the worst)
Opera (decent but not great)
Apple Safari ( very fast, not very popular except with MAC users)
There are a few other ones too but are not even worth mentioning
February 3rd, 2009 on 6:42 am
Google chrome

Unfortunately, no. That is, not without jailbreaking your phone first. The iPhone's "security features" give applications limited freedom to save to the file system and give you limited freedom to access files saved, and therefore Safari doesn't support it.

browsershots as said above is ok, but has limitations.
Personally, I have the latest issues of IE, FF, Opera, Chrome and Safari. These cover 99.5% of ww users: enough for me…
I test my sites on each of them, at different resolutions.

This is a HUGE subject, far too big to deal with here. The first thing that you should do, if you are serious about making your web site as accessible as possible, is to download the major browsers so that you can check your design in each one. So you want IE (unfortunately, you can't have IE 6 & 7 on the same computer!), Firefox, Netscape and perhaps Opera. If you can get it right in these, you will satisfy the vast majority of people.
The secret to compatibility is to make your pages compliant with the standards laid down by the w3c. The majority of browsers work to those standards. In the past, it was necessary to include a number of "tweaks" on the page to allow for the peculiarities of some browsers (particularly earlier versions of IE) but this is becoming less the case.
As well as checking your pages yourself, there is a validator available for your HTML through the w3 web site – first link below.
The second link takes you to a series of tutorials which I'm sure you will find helpful.
Incidentally, it's not just browsers that you have to satisfy. Users have a wide range of screen resolution and, unless you are careful, you may find that a page which looks perfect on one PC will break up on a smaller screen.
Really, it's a minefield – good luck!

When you make a request to a Web browser, it responds with a file.
At the very beginning of its response is a header. The header is a few lines of text that tells the Web browser all sorts of things about the file being sent back. Among the things sent back is the content type.
Content-type tells the browser what the Web server thinks the file is. The browser uses the content-type response to determine how it will handle the file: Try to display it, ask another program to open it, prompt you to save it to your disk drive, etc.
What the content-type line sent by a server contains depends on how the server is set up. Most Web servers have a "default" content-type list; what is sent is usually dependent on the file name / extension, but not always. Also, the Web server's admin can change what content-types are sent for specific file types.
You can also forge content-type information from a programming standpoint. It is very common, for example, for Web programmers to "dynamically" create data files (such as comma-delimited files), or even images, on the server, and then feed a person's Web browser a content-type specific to that file, overriding what the Web server would have sent.
A previous answerer stated the server sends a MIME type. That's not correct.
MIME is a methodology for e-mail programs to handle attachments. Both MIME and HTTP 1.1 have Content-type attributes, and they use the same format. They are very closely interrelated, but not the same thing.
