Part of the question: 1) How much of the market share does IE have? Opera? Firefox? 2) How many Firefox 2.x browsers have already been migrated to 3.x? For those who question whether this is programming related: This is for deciding what has large enough market share to actually be worth supporting for a web application -- given limite...
Does anyone know a way to open up an instance of the platform's (Windows/Linux/Mac) browser within a Swing window that is integrated into a Java application. No other actions would be preformed other than opening a given URL. Currently, we open a new browser window because the Java embedded browsers have been insufficient. However, from ...

My Firefox 3.0.4 does not display non-existing images at all, or it displays the image alt as plain text (if available). This way I would have no idea that there is supposed to be an image there. Does anyone know if there is a way to make it work like IE/Opera? (ie. display a box even if the image file doesn't exists) - plugin or anythi...
Note: this is a different problem to https - it's related to privacy security I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to take load off our server [cache] by pushing information to the browser. Is there any technology that will provide secure caching that is bound to a session? We have privacy-sensitive data that's often used, but wi...
(Related to Is there a secure Browser Cache? ): Do any of the implementations of HTML5 session storage write to disk ever? e.g. can I rely on having a "secure"/"private" cache that I know will not be able to persist beyond the browser session whether it times out is ended/logs out browser closes/crashes/power button on computer Se...
I want to let the user draw on an image in a browser. In other words, I need both bitmapped graphics and drawing capabilities, whether vector or bitmapped. Canvas looks good, but is not supported by IE, and though there is ExCanvas, I wonder if ExCanvas is stable enough for consistent use in IE6 through 8. Or best of all, is there an o...
Are there any initiatives to implement/agree upon a standard API for connectivity between web browsers and client hardware. Example: The iPhone has a GPS/Camera/Accellerometer in it. It'd be very cool if my web app could communicate with them (rather than me having to write a thick ObjectiveC application). ...
Is this defined by the language? Is there a defined maximum? Is it different in different browsers? ...

I think it boils down to evaluate differences between (if I missed something, please correct): - Layout rendering - Javascript behavior The final decision to be made being: Can developers test only on Safari Windows (knowing ...
There are plenty of "heavyweight" tools such as XmlSpy, which are good for prodding around in xml docs - but often (very often in some cases!) you just want to quickly open and browse an xml doc, and have it pretty printed. Possibly with some basic search functionality (textual is probably fine). I usually use a browser such as IE of Fi...

Whenever I try to access a NTLM authenticated intranet site, Safari takes forever to process and then comes back with "The sever is unavailable" or if allowed by the site, loads with out authenticating. I can access these same sites with no problems in both Firefox and Internet Explorer. The sites are hosted on IIS6 and are being generat...

I am having some Internet Explorer 7 (and 8 beta) browser-specific problems with a link to an MP3. When I click the link in IE7, a new browser window opens and the quicktime plugin tries to play the file. Instead ofthe player, I see a faded Quicktime icon with a question mark in the center. There is nothing wrong with the file. The ...
