User interface: Browser modes

Last updated: February 8th, 2009

To ensure backward compatibility with older browsers, browser creators had different modes for sites that work for different browser specifications

* Standard mode in Browser:

* Quirks mode in Browser:
Browser loosely renders the page and manipulates the box model differently which happens to be in sites built for IE 5.5 (and lesser versions) or Opera 7 browsers

* Almost standard mode in Browser:This is a mode in Firefox/Safari browsers where they handle the tables quite differently from standard mode (more…)
