Internet Explorer, abbreviated IE or MSIE, is a proprietary web
browser made by Microsoft and currently available as part of Microsoft
Windows. Internet Explorer is by far the most widely used web browser.Internet
Explorer has been designed to view the broadest range of web pages
without major problems. During the heydays of the historic browser
wars, Internet Explorer embraced Netscape by supporting many of
the progressive features of the time.
Internet Explorer almost fully supports HTML 4.01, CSS Level 1,
XML 1.0 and DOM Level 1, with minor implementation gaps. It partially
supports CSS Level 2 and DOM Level 2, with some implementation gaps
and conformance issues. It supports XHTML 1.0 to the extent that
HTML 4.01 compatibility guidelines are followed. Internet Explorer
uses DOCTYPE sniffing to choose between "quirks mode"
(renders similarly to older versions of MSIE) and standards mode
(renders strictly according to W3C's specifications) for HTML and
CSS rendering. It fully supports XSLT 1.0 or the December 1998 Working
Draft of XSL, depending on the version of MSXML (a dynamic link
library) available. It also provides its own dialect of ECMAScript
called JScript.
Internet Explorer supports a variety of graphics file formats,
including GIF, JPEG and PNG. Support for alpha channel is to be
included in version 7.0.
