Web Browser

[gooooogle]

What web browser do you use?

I use Apple's Safari for regular browsing and Mozilla for programming, because I am now learning how to code using the Mozilla framework. I think it's great that the creators of Netscape made their web browser open-source.

Yeah it is great, I use mozilla most the the time but I have never looked at the code for it.
Is it coded in c++?
I only code delphi and a bit of VB for programs so dont think I could edit the code to do anything useful really.
Do you lose the updates you made when you upgrade to a newer version of mozilla?

To use Mozilla as a Framework you don't actually have to touch to source code. It's a combination of XML, JS, HTML, CSS and other web programming languages which you can use to create applications and it's really well suited for web browses because the rendering and all that has been prebuilt. The rendering is all done by Gecko.

Ah ok, I didnt know that gooooogle, thanks
I havent even tried checking it out but might give it a look when I have a bit of free time, I thought it was only open source in c++

I use the good ol' fashion IE

I never did like IE. It crashed my computer all the time and on Mac it's just slow.

IE for browsing
Mozilla when coding
and Opera for testing

sometimes i open the old NS4.7 and quick close it, swearing like a dog

After having used Mozilla for a while now I've decided to use it as my default browser instead of Apple's Safari.
