KHTML - KHTML KHTML is the HTML layout engine developed by the KDE project. It was created for and is used in KDE's Konqueror file and web browser. The engine was later adopted by Apple for its Safari browser, and the company promised to return all improvements to the main code branch. Another company using KHTML for their product is YellowTAB - the company that bought the rights of BeOS. It is written in C++ and licensed under the LGPL. It supports HTML 4, CSS 1 and 2, DOM and JavaScript. Some extra abilities and quirks from Internet Explorer are supported, even though they are not part of the HTML standard definition. KHTML is fast, but less error tolerant than the Gecko layout engine, its main open source.
ABrowse - AtheOS/Syllable operating system. Like Apple's Safari, it uses a port of the Khtml html layout engine. ABrowse's inception and port of Khtml were performed by Kurt Skauen, who also created AtheOS. The port of Khtml communicates with the operating system's GUI's widget toolkit via a wrapper for the Qt toolkit. Because of difficulties with the amount of work required to maintain current ports of Khtml on the Syllable operating system, ABrowse's use of the Khtml layout engine shall be dropped by the Syllable Internet Tools Team in favour of the more-portable Gecko layout engine. Current development is performed by the Syllable Internet Tools team..
AtheOS - Norwegian programmer, Kurt Skauen, from 1994 to the early 2000s. The AtheOS Desktop The author also ported Khtml to create for AtheOS the ABrowse web browser. Features: Its own native 64-bit journaled file system, the AtheOS File System (usually called AFS) Support for symmetric multiprocessing An original, legacy-free, object-oriented gui architecture Support for most of the POSIX standard Pre-emptive multitasking with multithreading C++ oriented API Development is currently continued under/as the Syllable operating system code-fork..
Safari (browser) - OS X operating system. The code for rendering web pages is based on Konqueror's KHTML engine. As a result, Safari's internal HTML engine is free software and is released under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License. Improvements to the KHTML code are merged with the Konqueror project. Apple also released additional code (known as WebCore) under an open source 2-clause BSD-like license. The source code for the rest of the browser, including Apple's external GUI, however, has not been released. Safari utilizes Apple's brushed metal user interface, a bookmark management scheme that functions like the iTunes jukebox software, is integrated with Apple's QuickTime multimedia technology and features a tabbed-browsing interface similar to that of Mozilla. A Google search box is a standard component of the Safari interface, as.
Web browser - dialects of HTML, leading to problems with Web interoperability. Modern web browsers (such as Mozilla, Opera, and Safari) support standards-based HTML and XHTML (starting with HTML 4.01), which should display in the same way across all browsers. Tim Berners-Lee introduced the first web browser, named WorldWideWeb, on February 26, 1991.

Layout engine - (Gecko) was reusable for web browsers besides Mozilla, and so people began to refer to Gecko as a distinct "layout engine" rather than merely a part of the web browser. Examples of layout engines include the following: Gecko layout engine KHTML.
