At present the main browsers in use are
- Netscape. Originally given away free, but now a commercial product. Netscape's browser gained in popularity because it added a lot of new features to HTML. In doing so it made HTML non-standard though a lot of the Netscape extensions have since been accepted into standard HTML. One of the major Netscape extensions was JavaScript.
- internet Explorer. Microsoft's (rather late) response to Netscape. Not yet as popular, but being free and ubiquitous may fix that in a few years. As with Netscape, IE has also extended HTML in its own way.
- Hotjava. Not that popular at the moment, but supplied by the people (Sun) who supply the Java programming language and environment that is likely to play a large part in making web pages more interactive.
- Mosaic. Still in use, but showing its age, and no longer being developed.
- Lynx. This is a text-based browser that is remarkably popular despite (or because of) this fact. Lynx can be a very fast and effective way of browsing the net, if only because it dispenses with all the time-consuming graphics.
- Opera. New kid on the block. Given good reviews primarily for its reputation for being fast (especially since the big 2 went to version 4 and became unweildly). Probably not as "fully featured" as some others.
