Web browsers

[rthompson80819]

I posted a comment several weeks ago and said I had all the web browsers.  Then I came across this list.

http://www.fileinfo.com/help/web-browsers.html

There are 15 browsers listed just for Windows.  Many of which I've never heard of before.  Also, there is a brief description for each one and it's features.

I should have said I have most of the popular browsers.

Here is a list of 31 browsers for Windows and information about them in a simple useful format.

half of those aren't really browsers, they are just crappy GUI's built around a WebBrowser control... which essentially makes them IE.

You can make one in the Microsoft Visual Basic GUI editor in MS Word. I've made many "web browsers" before. Some really good looking. Others just a textbox, a button and the browser control.

Visual Basic Stopped being Visual Basic after Version 6.

Not that the new language going by that name isn't neat; it is just a different language altogether.

Really? I'm too young to have ever used VB6, so I can't compare.

Yeah, until .NET you could literally run almost any Visual Basic program written for any previous version; VB6 can open a VB2 project, for example (as long as the VB2 program is saved as text). Any project could be opened in the new IDE, and with a few minimal changed, run just fine.

VB .NET requires a complete rewrite for all but the most trivial applications to be ported from VB6.  The language itself is good, and it answers a lot of requests for features put in for "VB7" but the whole thing where MS breaks 14 years or so of compatibility just doesn't sit right with a lot of people.
