  1. ^ Font smoothing or font rasterization is arguably an accessibility feature affecting how the fonts are rendered and font readability. Also referred as ClearType or TrueType
  2. ^ a b c On Mac systems, gestures are available systemwide via multitouch sensing on trackpads and mice.
  3. ^ a b c d On macOS, text-to speech and speech recognition are available systemwide and is available from menu in native Cocoa browsers.
  4. ^ a b c d e f Google Chrome can be given these features using extensions like smooth gestures, speechify and voice control for google chrome.
  5. ^ a b TTS in Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge is available through the operating system Speech API. For TTS, SAPI takes text as input and uses the TTS engine to output that text as spoken audio. This is the same technology used by the Windows accessibility tool, Narrator. SAPI and an English TTS engine have been embedded in all Windows operating systems since the release of Windows XP.
  6. ^ a b Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge can be controlled by applications which use the operating system Speech API. A built-in application called Windows Speech Recognition ships with Windows Vista and later client versions.
  7. ^ ELinks 0.12 supports spatial navigation.
  8. ^ Available as of this commit.
  9. ^ Supports as of v1.7.0: https://github.com/QupZilla/qupzilla/issues/458
  10. ^ Available as a Mouse Gestures plugin which is disabled by default, but it is part of default installation.
  11. ^ Doug Turner, the Minimo lead developer, has introduced spatial navigation to some special Firefox builds "Adot's notblog* "firefox, cats, mars, and more": Spatial navigation rocks". Archived from the original on 22 April 2005. Retrieved 20 April 2005.. It may build as a default part of Firefox "Spatial Navigation in Mozilla". Archived from the original on 22 April 2005. Retrieved 20 April 2005..
  12. ^ a b Mouse gesture support can be added by installing extensions like All-in-One Gestures (Firefox-only) [3] and Mouse Gestures [4].
  13. ^ Firefox works with a number of screen readers such as JAWS and Microsoft Speech API through extensions.[which?]
  14. ^ Web supports mouse gestures as an extension from the official extensions package.
  15. ^ Internet Explorer 8 supports caret browsing.
  16. ^ Mouse gesture support is available via plug-ins, i.e. Mouse Gestures for Internet Explorer or Easy Go Back.
  17. ^ Mouse gesture support is available system-wide in KDE
  18. ^ Text-to speech support depends on the kttsd application in the kdeaccessibility package.

Browser ActiveX[a] NPAPI[a] Java[b] Gears RSS Atom other web feed
  1. ^ a b c d Internet Explorer (and Shells) is the only browser to natively support the Component Object Model (popularly known as ActiveX). Most other browsers use the NPAPI plugin architecture. ActiveX is more powerful than NPAPI in terms of the control it affords over the browser, but it is specific to Windows whereas NPAPI is cross-platform. There is a third-party plugin that adds partial ActiveX support, that is available for certain older versions of Mozilla Suite, Mozilla Firefox and Netscape Navigator. The default settings in earlier versions of Internet Explorer allowed the automatic download, installation, and running of new ActiveX controls with minimal user intervention – this made it possible to use ActiveX on web pages to install viruses, spyware, etc. onto a user's computer.
  2. ^ a b Java support is for built-in support by the browser without a plugin.
  3. ^ a b c d e f g h Internet Explorer 7 and later.
  4. ^ a b NPAPI and the Java-plugin were disabled by default in Chrome versions 42 and not supported in Chrome versions 45 and higher.
  5. ^ a b RSS and ATOM feed autodetection in Epiphany depends on the Newsfeed extension which is included with Epiphany-extensions.
  6. ^ Internet Explorer did for a time support NPAPI plugins. Plugins that functioned in the Netscape browser also functioned in Internet Explorer. This was due to a small ActiveX control implemented within a "plugin.ocx" file that acted as a shim between the ActiveX based browser and the NPAPI plugin. The IE browser would load the control and use it to host plugins specified within the page. However, Microsoft made the claim that the NPAPI plugins (or the IE implementation of the API) were a security issue and dropped support for them in version 5.5 SP2.[108][109][110]
  7. ^ Internet Explorer 8 supports syndicated content in hAtom / hSlice microformat by the name of a feature known as Web Slices. Internet Explorer 4.0—7 supported CDF.
  8. ^ a b RSS and ATOM feed autodetection in Konqueror depends on the aKregator package which is installed with kdepim.
  9. ^ Safari had Java only on macOS, up to Safari 11. No longer supported Safari for Windows needed a plugin.
  10. ^ Safari has Gears only on Mac OS X 10.4+. Windows is not supported.

JavaScript support[edit]

  1. ^ a b Although it was one of the first suggested WWW image formats, most browsers support TIFF by using a plugin installed by the user instead of decoding it natively.
  2. ^ a b SVG here refers to SVG 1.1 Full. There are also two simplified profiles known as SVG 1.1 Tiny and SVG 1.1 Basic, which are intended for user agents with limited capabilities.
  3. ^ a b Most browsers support PDF by installing an Adobe plugin which takes over the browser window. Listed here are browsers which also support inline PDFs within other hypertext documents (such as within HTML's <img/> tag). Note that PDF (in strictly speaking) is not an image format, but a scriptable rich text document format that can contain different types of multimedia content, including vector and bitmap graphics, audio, video, forms, intra- and inter-document hypertext links and a hierarchical contents listing. The format is also the native display format under macOS.
  4. ^ a b Internet Explorer supports PNG images but is unable to correctly display images with gamma correction or color correction.[citation needed] Versions of Internet Explorer prior to version 7 are unable to correctly display images with alpha channel (for transparency) without additional coding [9].
  5. ^ a b Support for the canvas element was added to Internet Explorer 9. Earlier versions of Internet Explorer can be made to emulate canvas using the excanvas script.
  6. ^ a b c d Internet Explorer support for XBM files was removed in Version 6.
  7. ^ a b c d Firefox and SeaMonkey partially support SVG 1.1 Full. Modules that are implemented or not implemented and details of their implementation: [10].
  8. ^ a b c For Chromium prior to version 59 there is support via an extension.
  9. ^ Falkon supports as much SVG specification as WebKit does: [11].
  10. ^ a b Mozilla applications rebranded by the GNU project, such as GNU IceCat or Iceape do not support APNG.[citation needed]
