Ideally I'm looking for something that is browser agnostic.

A: 

Are you asking "I'm looking for a server-side language that is browser agnostic?" i.e. PHP, ASP, etc...?

If that's the case, then the easy answer is they all are browser agnostic the HTML and CSS that gets generated, or added in manually is what gets different browsers acting all quirky.

So, to answer what I think your question is: It doesn't matter, just make sure you validate your HTML and CSS

As insane as it sounds, I think that he is looking for an actual HTTP web server that can run inside the browser. Any browser. All browsers. Insane.

There is no way in hell you want to run a web server inside the browser. Running a normal web server for testing isn't all that hard, and there are lots of web servers that are free and will run cross platform. I usually use Apache because installing it on Linux is easy, but for simple static pages, lighttpd might be a better solution in that it's small and fast.

'no way in hell' should have bold and italics.

And underline if you can do that as well.

Opera Unite is (sort-of) a very simple web server built in to the Opera browser, but it's obviously not browser-agnostic, nor is it fully featured.
