This week's question is:
Why do websites appear differently in a Netscape browser versus an Internet Explorer browser?
and the answer is...
Just as you and your neighbor may have different interpretations of what it means to care for a lawn, the popular web browsers Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator each can have their own interpretation of HTML, the programming language used to create web pages. This results in an appearance distortion between the two browsers displaying the same web page. Luckily someone was brilliant enough to create the World Wide Web Consortium. an organization who set the standards for web pages. Since both browsers accept this established protocol, a good web programmer can circumvent this problem by adhering to the Consortium's standards.

Various tools exist to assist in writing pure HTML code so web pages will look very similar between Netscape, Internet Explorer and any other browser. For additional information and resources on this topic, please visit AnyBrowser.com
