typing the addresses. It display pages by interpreting a markup
language: XHTML. The appearance of a site may be different from one
browser to another as this interpretation is not always the same due to
non-compliance.

A good browser should first have a clear interface providing easy
access to priority functions. For example, it is important to have an
input box to type directly searches.
Another criterion is the
possibility of using extensions. Firefox, Opera, Safari, Internet
Explorer all allows to install extensions that add functionality.

by the W3C which is not in case of Internet Explorer for example.
