Web Browsers have come a long way from the days of the first internet web browser, Mosaic and the like. The monopoly of the Microsoft-authored Internet Explorer has been decisively broken and terminated possibly, forever.

A web browser is defined as a software application, a typical HTTP client that helps the internet visitor to interpret the HTML documents and display the content from web servers or in file systems.Today there are a variety of internet browsers available.

HTTP is one of the most successful and widely used protocols on the Internet today. It is application-layer protocol used to transmit and receive hypertext pages. HTTP allows a client usually a web browser to send a simple request and receive response back from the server. Whenever you write a URL in address bar of you browser, your browser firstly contacts the web server, web server locates the requested page and sends the appropriate response. These requests and responses are issued in HTTP.

The Internet didn’t begin as an elaborate means of communication for people around the world. In fact, it was created in the 1960s as a way to transfer data between computers via telephone lines. This allowed the transfer of information to and from scientists and military personnel in a very efficient manner. It wasn’t until the early 1980s that the Internet became more readily available to doctors, educators, businesses and government agencies.

Early Web Design

By the late 1980s, the Internet was being introduced as a means of communication for anyone with a computer, modem and telephone line. In 1993, a new freeware browser program called Mosaic was developed. Continue Reading

A browser is an application that provides a way to look at and interact with all the information on the World Wide Web. Technically, a web browser uses HTTP to make requests of web servers throughout the Internet on behalf of the browser user. In other words, a web browser is a software application that allows one to view pages on the World Wide Web.

The history of the web browser can be traced back to 1991, when a computer guru named Tim Berners-Lee invented the very first web browser. It premiered on February 26, 1991, and ran on NeXSTEP. It was called WorldWideWeb, but was later renamed Nexus in an effort to avoid confusion with the World Wide Web.

It’s very easy to download and install Opera – as long as you know how to install any software on your favourite platform.

2/ Opera browsers main features :

If you want to get more done in less time, it’s important to learn how to type faster.  If you’re only typing 20 WPM (Words Per Minute), then you’re not going to get as much done compared to someone who types 50 WPM in the same amount of time.  If you can type 50 WPM, then you won’t get as much done compared to if you can type 80 WPM.

The most obvious example would be if you do writing.  To write 500 words, which is about a page, it’ll take you 10 minutes to type it at 50 WPM.  But if you can type 80 WPM, you can finish it in 6.25 minutes.  That gives you about 4 minutes of time savings.

4 minutes may not be much, but they accumulate.  If you’re writing 5 pages (a Continue Reading

At present, a vast majority of webmasters are designing for IE (Internet Explorer) 6, which is not as W3C standards compliant as is FireFox, Netscape, Safari and Opera.

In my article – “The importance of sound website design & search spiders to Internet Marketers,” I mentioned the importance of a designer being cognizant of the fact that web browser standards are not yet fully harmonized – a web page that looks great in Internet Explorer (6) might look hideous in a Mozilla based browser like FireFox or Netscape.

I also noted that with the explosion of devices with which to serve Internet applications, compliance with W3C standards has become crit Continue Reading
