Search Results - Netscape

Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

Netscape Communications (formerly known as Netscape Communications Corporation and commonly known as Netscape) was a US computer services company, best known for its web browser. The browser was once dominant in terms of usage share, but lost most of that share to Internet Explorer during the first browser war. By the end of 2006, the usage share of Netscape browsers had fallen, from over 90% in the mid 1990s, to less than 1%. Netscape developed the Secure Sockets Layer Protocol (SSL) used for securing online communication, which is still widely used.[1]

Netscape stock traded between 1995 and 2003, subsequently as a subsidiary of AOL LLC. However, it became a holding company following AOL's purchase of Netscape in 1998. The Netscape brand is still extensively used by AOL. Some services currently offered under the Netscape brand, other than the web browser, include a discount Internet service provider and a popular social news website. In December 2007, AOL announced it would no longer be updating the Netscape browser. Tom Drapeau, director of AOL's Netscape Brand, announced that the company would stop supporting Netscape software products as of March 1, 2008.[2] The decision met mixed reactions from communities, with many arguing that the termination of product support is significantly belated. Internet security site Security Watch stated that a trend of infrequent security updates for AOL's Netscape cause the browser to become a "security liability", specifically the 2005-2007 versions, Netscape Browser 8.[3] Asa Dotzler, one of Firefox's original programmers, greeted the news with "good riddance" in his blog post, but praised the various members of the Netscape team over the years for enabling the creation of Mozilla in 1998.[4] Others protested and petitioned AOL to continue providing vital security fixes to unknowing or loyal users of its software, as well as protection of a well-known brand.[5][6][7]

Netscape was the second company to attempt to capitalize on the (then) nascent World Wide Web. It was originally founded under the name, Mosaic Communications Corporation, on April 4, 1994, the brainchild of Jim Clark who had recruited Marc Andreessen as co-founder and Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers as investors. Clark recruited other early Netscape team members from SGI and NCSA Mosaic, including Rosanne Siino who became Vice President of Communications. The company's first product was the web browser, called Mosaic Netscape 0.9, released on October 13, 1994. This browser was subsequently renamed Netscape Navigator, and the company took the 'Netscape' name on November 14, 1994[8] to avoid trademark ownership problems with NCSA, where the initial Netscape employees had previously created the NCSA Mosaic web browser. The Mosaic Netscape web browser used some NCSA Mosaic code with NCSA's permission, as noted in the application's "About" dialog box. Netscape made a very successful IPO on August 9, 1995. The stock was set to be offered at $14 per share. But, a last-minute decision doubled the initial offering to $28 per share. The stock's value soared to $75 on the first day of trading, nearly a record for first-day gain. The company's revenues doubled every quarter in 1995.[9] Netscape's success landed Andreessen, barefoot, on the cover of Time Magazine[10].

Netscape advertised that "the web is for everyone" and stated one of its goals as to "level the playing field" among operating systems by providing a consistent web browsing experience across them. The Netscape web browser interface was identical on any computer. Netscape later experimented with prototypes of a web-based system which would enable users to access and edit their files anywhere across a network, no matter what computer or operating system they happened to be using. This did not escape the attention of Microsoft, which viewed the commodification of operating systems as a direct threat to its bottom line. It is alleged that several Microsoft executives visited the Netscape campus in June 1995 to propose dividing the market (although Microsoft denies this as it would have breached anti-trust laws), which would have allowed Microsoft to produce web browser software for Windows while leaving all other operating systems to Netscape.[11] Netscape refused the proposition.

1. Embracing Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)
October 16, 2009

Why do I like Cascading Styles Sheets (CSS) and what makes CSS so great. The answer only makes sense if you know what CSS is. The Holy Grail of CSS is to separate the content of a web page from the instructions that control what it looks like. This makes it much easier for various devices to display the web page correctly. The same page would display correctly on all standard web browsers (Internet Explorer, FireFox, Opera, Netscape, etc.), and devices used by persons with a handicap, cell phones, other devices, and yet-to-be-developed interfaces. The web site designer would not have to ... (read more)

2. Of CGI & Java Scripts
October 08, 2009

CGI and Java Scripts are both functional with both Netscape and Internet Explorer browsers. But there is an essential difference between the two. Java functions as a code executed and downloaded in the clients' side while CGI operates with the server. Before probing deeper into the difference of the two, let us first try to understand these two often-used scripts. Java Script requires no special plug-ins, and it works transparently within an HTML page. It animates web page graphics, allows users to change page elements (background color, display preferences), and allows site navigation. ... (read more)

3. Video and Audio Use for Internet Marketing
September 18, 2009

It took radio 38 years to attract an audience of 50 million Americans. It took television 13 years. It took the web less than four years from the moment when the Netscape browser became widely available in October 1994 to hit the 50 million mark. Now, video and audio and other new media technologies are taking the web by storm. The Pew Internet project reports that: • 57% of internet users have watched videos online and most of them share what they find with others • Three-quarters of broadband users (74%) who enjoy high-speed connections at both home and work watch or download vide...

5. Website Designing with Browser Compatibility
August 27, 2009

In the early days of the Internet, many sites advertising "Best viewed with Netscape" or "Best viewed with Internet Explorer" or the like. These days, such labels seem to be rarer. Web designer today put an inordinate amount of effort to promote their sites on the search engines. The principle of designing the page for compatibility with different browsers, operating systems are as follows. 1. Screen Resolution Issues Design the site with fixed widths. Designing for the 1024x768 screen resolution, will force almost half the visitors to scroll the screens horizontally to see the ent... (read more)

8. Web Standards, Browsers and Designing for the future
August 10, 2009

At present, a vast majority of webmasters are designing for IE (Internet Explorer) 6, which is not as W3C standards compliant as is FireFox, Netscape, Safari and Opera. In my article - "The importance of sound website design & search spiders to Internet Marketers," I mentioned the importance of a designer being cognizant of the fact that web browser standards are not yet fully harmonized - a web page that looks great in Internet Explorer (6) might look hideous in a Mozilla based browser like FireFox or Netscape. I also noted that with the explosion of devices with which to serve In... (read more)

Taken 19 September 1998. Netscape is viewing a webpage from the web server Apache on the localhost. The GIMP toolbar is near the bottom left, which I used to take and save the screenshot. The DOS emulator is busy running DOS in a box, and the Windows emulator is running Minesweeper off my Windows drive. The Redhat control panel is to the right. Xearth is updating in the background, making one wonder why MS makes such a big fuss over 'Active Desktop' when such features come automatically under X as a side-effect of a good system design. My Linux box has all my Windows drives mounted, and using ... (read more)

10. Tips to Organize your Website
July 06, 2009

Once your Web site is up, you must maintain it. Maintenance means changes, and each time you make a change, you may make a mistake. If your visitors get a link that doesn't work or has incomplete instructions, or if your copy is lackluster instead of passionate, they will leave your site and not bookmark it. First, make sure each page of your site has a good title. When you view your site in Internet Explorer or Netscape, what shows up at the very top of the screen? If it says "Home Page" or, even worse, "Untitled," that is what visitors will see when they include your site in their Favor... (read more)

12. Web browser to Mix Image Elements with text
February 22, 2009

A quick look at Wikipedia reveals that Mosaic was the first popular World Wide Web browser to mix image elements with text. It was developed at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications in 1992, released to the public in 1993 for non commercial use, and orphaned in 1997. Mosaic project alumni and other users established Mosaic Communications Corporation which eventually became Netscape Communications Corporation, producing Netscape Navigator. A different group established Spyglass Inc. with their own version of Mosaic. When Microsoft was not allowed to license the Netscape Navigator... (read more)

November 21, 2008

A nostalgic look back at 90s web design, and a warning to anyone whose website is an accidental anachronism. Remember the days when every PC was beige, every website had a little Netscape icon on the homepage, Geocities and Tripod hosted just about every single personal homepage, and "Google" was just a funny-sounding word? The mid-late 1990s were the playful childhood of the worldwide web, a time of great expectations for the future and pretty low standards for the present. Those were the days when doing a web search meant poring through several pages of listings rather than glancing at t... (read more)

15. Web html editor: details are important
November 18, 2008

When you need to build several html pages for your website or just publish an html snippet, there are several ways to do so. First one is to pay someone to do this. Not an option. Second one is to learn HTML and build your pages in Notepad or any other simple text editor (no MS Word, of course!), but if you would rather not become a geek at hand coding HTML, then you need a WYSIWYG editor (What You See Is What You Get). WYSIWYG editors allow you to see how your pages or code snippet will look as they are being created. The editors hide the HTML code from the user, making it possible for n... (read more)

How could we ever hope to achieve even a fraction of the relevance of these towering icons of success?

September 23, 2008

Microsoft is yet again toying with the idea of surrogate marketing, by launching the Silverlight (SL), the medium they exploited to topple Netscape in the 1990’s with the Internet Explorer browser. Silverlight is a browser plugin or software for playing media files and other Web applications that work on Windows and Macintosh with Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safari browsers. SL will be able to display interactive animations, graphics, audio and video streaming within a fixed window of the particular Web browser display. Microsoft had tied up with National Broadcasting Company (NBC) to... (read more)

July 13, 2008

With browsers going through a phase of following a similar standard of HTML codes, some of the download poker that is developed by very new programmers is not compatible with older versions of browsers like Netscape. So, in such cases when you download poker, it is necessary that you download poker after checking if the program is compatible with the browser that you use. Otherwise, you can download the browser that it supports to your pc and start playing right there. It is not really offensive to have more than one browser in your desktop.
