RE: Which Browser Do You Like?
There are loads of browsers, but there aren't many rendering engines.
The rendering engine is the core bit that turns HTML coding into things you can see, and a load of browsers use the same ones.
The main ones are...
Trident - which is used in IE, and therefore all IE based browsers, such as Avant Browser
Gecko - An open source engine, which is used in all Mozilla based browsers, such as Firefox and Flock
Presto - used in Opera, and also used in Adobe Dreamweaver (on OSX) and CS2
Those are all Windows Engines, there are many others.
On Linux, the main one is KHTML for Konqueror, and there is also Presto, since Opera is linux compatiable.
and on Macs, there is iCab (for iCab), WebCore (used in Safari) and Presto.
on Mobiles there is HTMLayout and Presto.
Note that Presto is the only engine that is compatiable on pretty much all platforms, including mobile platforms.
