Through Gecko, access to the web can become even more pervasive. Gecko can allow consumers to use their favorite devices to access stock quotes and make trades while on the go or to order take-out food and shop for the holidays from the comfort of their living rooms. Software developers have free access to Gecko's source code, enabling them to customize Gecko and giving them maximum flexibility. The code is available for download from mozilla.org . Key Benefits Small and Modular.
Gecko is very small and modular yet delivers rich functionality.
This enables the creation of Internet client products that can potentially be used on a wide array of computing platforms, devices, and appliances. Support for Leading Internet Standards. Gecko features industry-leading Internet standards support. In addition, full support for these Internet standards enables their use for building user interfaces - for example, the browser's toolbars. This innovative use of standards means that content, web applications, and the user interface of applications such as the browser can be built once to run on multiple computing platforms.
