Check this out yourself
* Chrome renders ugly  ( shadows are limited to 1 width)
* Chrome renders slower (try hovering over the buttons and letting the stuff transform

Now as per SVG filters are concerned google hasnt implemented all the specified W3C filters in the SVG renderer for chrome , moreover due to heavy antialiasing (or i dk what else) this actually takes a few percent more CPU load then firefox ,

Talking about bugs , i dk why but chrome likes chrashing in front of me .

It is unsafe  tongue  try dragging and dropping an Mp3 inside it  tongue  it will play as if it was coming from web (do that with an OGG on ffox)  tongue  it will give warning or wont load atall

Re: Web Browsers

Chrome.

Good: Start up is fast, loading is fast, no toolbars, made by google (lol)

Bad: Freezes a lot, plugins don't always load, I don't know if having toolbars is good or bad.

It's not. It uses standardised code but it runs fine on my dev build of Chromium.

Lol do you have to ask? Chrome is for sure the best!


If you are reading this, please read to the end, because if you don't you won't know what's at the end. Don't just skip to the end though otherwise you won't be able to read the middle, which is most important. Now you must be wondering why you just read all that, the reason is you may have not noticed something, read it again and see if you notice it this time  smile

Are you kidding? I have the newest version of ie and it takes forever.to load then it will slow down the whole comp and after.I close it it sometimes crashes!

Want a in-depth analysis ..

Well here are pros and cons of Firefox , Chrome(webkit) and IE (i wont suggest any other one to keep it small)


Firefox
Pros
* Fast CSS3 engine *
* Uses Hardware in most cases for rendering *
* Has web GL (but sucky beta)*
* Is secure (has too many security procedures to make u safe)*
* Works on all platforms*
* Very Very Stable *
* Developer Friendly (FireBug and -moz-APIs)*
* Everything thats implemented of the new W3C specifications is very decently done*
* Supports Web Workers*
* Pffct AJAX engine *
* Faster Inline and Non-Inline SVG *
* SVG Filters fully supported *
* Awesome SMIL support *
* SVG is fastest here *
* Robust browser*
cons
* WebGL aint fast enough *
* No .mp3 support for audio element *
* Might crash outa nowhere with webWorkers *
* no 3D div support * (HTML 5 3d Transforms)
* Memory Leak Issues*
* Loads slow*


Chrome
Pros
* V8 is the fastest JavaScript engine so web-apps run faster *
* WebGL support is super decent *
* Supports 3d div transitions *
* Supports .mp3 in <audio> HTML 5*
* Supports desktop notifications *
Cons
* Slightly Insecure *
* Broken Support for SVG*
* Filters doesnt sometimes result in what they should in SVG*
* Crashes without warning for no reasons *
* CSS3 isnt always Hardware Accelerates so page performance with heavy shadows might die *
* No PHP streaming support , (this requires a workaround for ob_flush() to work in PHP but thats just outa scope in short this wont support a decent php developers dreams of a good application ), this could be termed as Broken AJAX engine
* Everything is there but nothing is perfect ( CSS 3 is best in Firefox , 3d is gettting best in IE , Console is best in Firebug, IE 10's JS engine so far is close to V8 i am assuming finally it will beat it  tongue  ,-fingers crossed- )
* Dropped some HTML 5 support in 17 (16 had 90% , 17 has 88% of HTML 5 support overall)
* 17.0 and 16.0 tends to work slow with heavy shadows and filters in SVG , dropping performance of v8 to knees (generally freezing)
* Allows file access without warning -_- that actually scares me with HTML 5 file api native support its really really dangerous *
* Sometimes too much lite weight lacking basics like offline browsing  tongue  *
* can KILL UI in HTML 5 flashy apps unless they are precisely made for chrome *
* Canvas sometimes does unexpected results * ( Opera , MSIE , Firefox show same output but Chrome goes bad *
* CSS 3 shadows looks quite ugly in here *
* Font's default size is thin , quite condensed font style makes some UI text look bad unless some developer writes a secure workaround for chrome *
* Based heavily on apple webkit so has its bugs and self bugs and some hybrid bugs*
* CSS 3 outlines dont shape themselves according to borders *
* CSS 3 border-radius for a div should trim the div but on chrome the trimed region is still visible making the div look ugly *
* I think its only a browser for showy things like WebGL decent internet is too buggy on chrome*
* Other cons are bugs arnt typed as i am too lazy too*




Internet Explorer

IE9 often locks up, is slow and is ugly. What more do you want? ActiveX controls are only for IE so that's the only reason anyone with half a technical brain would use it. I don't need ActiveX so I don't use it.

I do like the look of IE9 better than 7 though, but they've still got a while to go.
I wish Firefox had ActiveX, then IE wouldn't be good for anything. XD
