A '''web browser''', '''internet browser''' or simply a '''browser''' is a [[Application|software application]] used to locate, retrieve and display content on the [[World Wide Web (WWW)|World Wide Web]], including webpages, images, video and other files. As a [[Client Server Model|client/server model]], the browser is the client run on a [[Computer|computer]] or [[Mobile Device|mobile device]] that contacts the [[Web Server|Web server]] and requests information. The web server sends the information back to the browser which displays the results on the Internet-enabled device that supports a browser.<ref>Definition - What Does Web Browser Mean?

-The primary function of a web browser is to render [[HTML (Hypertext Markup Language)|HTML]], the code used to design or "mark up" webpages. Each time a browser loads a web page, it processes the HTML, which may include text, links, and references to images and other items, such as cascading style sheets and [[JavaScript|JavaScript]] functions. The browser processes these items, then renders them in the browser window. Early web browsers, such as Mosaic and Netscape Navigator, were simple applications that rendered HTML, processed form input, and supported bookmarks. As websites have evolved, so have web browser requirements. Today's browsers are far more advanced, supporting multiple types of HTML (such as XHTML and HTML 5), dynamic JavaScript, and encryption used by secure websites.

 The capabilities of modern web browsers allow web developers to create highly interactive websites. For example, Ajax enables a browser to dynamically update information on a webpage without the need to reload the page. Advances in CSS allow browsers to display a responsive [[website]] layouts and a wide array of visual effects. Cookies allow browsers to remember your settings for specific websites. While web browser technology has come a long way since Netscape, browser compatibility issues remain a problem. Since browsers use different rendering engines, websites may not appear the same across multiple browsers. In some cases, a website may work fine in one browser, but not function properly in another. Therefore, it is smart to install multiple browsers on your [[computer]] so you can use an alternate browser if necessary.<ref>Functions and Capabilities of Web Browser [https://techterms.com/definition/web_browser Techterms]</ref>
