Web
browsers can be defined in two ways: 1) Web
browsers provide an avenue for you to display your website
to others around the world. 2) Web browsers
provide an avenue for end Internet users to view
websites. So, whether you're a designer or an end
user, you'll find that Web browsers are necessary in
everyday operations.
When you
design your web pages, you'll use a programming language or
special program such as HTML, XTML, PHP, FLASH, MYSQL, or
some other technique. Web browsers will look at your
web page codes and translate them into readable,
pleasant-looking pages for the end user. Instead of
"jibberish" your visitors should see a well-designed web
page. If all they see is the code, you can forget selling
anything or getting your point across!
Example:
If you type the HTML code into your web page for the word
"HELLO" in bold print, the code looks like this (minus the
asterisks): **<b>HELLO</b>**
Your end user will see this: HELLO
The Web browser took the "bold" HTML code you created and
translated into a visible design function. How does it do
this? We'll leave that to the computer techies!
Popular Web Browsers
*Internet Explorer (IE):
Microsoft's Web browser - the most popular today. It
was released in 1995 and surpassed Netscape in popularity in
1998.
*Netscape: This was the
first commercial Web browser, released in 1994.
*Firefox: A
new browser that was released in place of Netscape following
the Netscape 7.2 version. It is based on Mozilla and
is the second most popular Web browser on the WWW.
*Opera: A
Norwegian Web browser used for small devices such as Palm
Pilot computers or cell phones with online access.
Before you begin promoting your website, check it out on
each of the browsers mentioned above to be sure others see
your web pages the way you want them to see it. Look
for "scroll" across bars at the bottom of your web pages to
be sure the page size is not too large. Check your
graphics, page loading time and the overall layout of your
web pages. One browser might show your website one way
while another is total opposite. It's better to be
safe than sorry later. You can lose a lot of business
if hundreds or thousands of people are unable to view your
website correctly.
