IE Vs Firefox

"War of the Browsers" . Yes IE has got a good rival after a long time war with the Netscape's Navigator. Even the 90 percentage of PC OS is windows, so as IE. But in the developer community Firefox is catching up rapidly with its open source and add-on extensions for developer. Recently i came across the Fireofx extension for the web developer, which helps a lot while designing UI. Today one of my collegue come up with the IE DEV BAR, Firfox web developer like extension for the IE. It is good to see a war, as the product gets support for the more and more functionalities. IE has got upper edge in the normal user( naive) community, but over the developer community Firefox has slight upper egde, beacuse of its add-on extensions for the developers.

We can expect a lot more with the IE-7, its beta version released with a lot of changes from the traditional look. What i liked is the option for the opening a new web page in the same window (using tab, Firefox already has this facility).

Iam expecting a XUL like language from IE, which is compatible with Firefox( Dreaming..???). XUL is a powerful XML like language (tool) , which can help you to change the whole look of the browser.

Stay tuned to the war... We can get exciting features..!!!
