It is impossible for each one of us to live without Internet in this generation. But have we ever thought how the Bowser that we can't live without work, how data from a remote location is displayed on your screen when you open any site. I would briefly discuss and make you understand the working of the Web Browser.
Web Browser is a software application that enables a user to interact and work with images, text, files, scripts, animations, etc available on a remote location on www (world wide web) or on local network. We all wonder how the page coded in some languages like HTML, PHP, JSP, .Net , etc opens up in the browser. This shows that Web browser has that much capability to understand and work with coded pages in various languages. You all might have worked with the various browsers present till date like Internet Explorer the most famous borwser, others are Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome and many more. Also you might have realized that a web page appears different in different browsers because of various techniques that the companies developing the Web browsers use.
If you wish to see how a webpage is actually written, do a right click and choose ‘view source’. You will see a clutter commands and text which do not make any sense at all. The browser converts this clutter into understandable display.
Web Browers in lay man terms is used to access the internet on world wide web but in reality the people who are very much familiar with the Net Browsing uses browser to view E-Books, Internet, Pdf files, Offline Content, local Intranet matters, etc.
Web browsers communicate with Web servers primarily using HTTP (hypertext transfer protocol) to fetch webpages. HTTP allows Web browsers to submit information to Web servers as well as fetch Web pages from them. For a secured connection like in case of Internet Banking Web servers use HTTPS i.e. secured hypertext transfer protocol. In this case a hacker is not able to get any information that floats in the air when a user submits his username and password as that in case of HTTP by using the snipping tools any one can view or extract the submitted information because it is not encrypted.
In addtion to various languages like Php, Jsp browsers are also able to communicate and display the embedded images or media like videos or animations with the coding and this all makes it a real success of the Browser.
