Does anyone know the code, pipeline or the way these browsers render emoji, canvas, text, etc on their browsers.
If you are using Windows first update your Firefox and for Chrome browser, use this extension

Is there any point in using SVG Web, if I render SVG only for browsers that support SVG anyway? (IE9, Chrome, Firefox, Opera.)
Perhaps SVG Web fixes/works-around some browser inconsistencies? (E.g. different SVG API:s or browser bugs, like jQuery does)
((Background: I already use SVG Web, and wonder if I should attempt to remove it from my webapp, it's 100k minified. For IE 7 and 8, I use PNG images instead.))
Not really.
AFAIK it doesn't do that, unless you force all browsers to use the flash renderer, which seems a bit pointless.
I'm working on a site for a client and they've asked for a fix for the font rendering in FF and Chrome not looking as good as it does in IE. Here's a screenshot:
Does the IE text on the left look nicer because it hooks into Windows Cleartype, and FF doesn't? I think there is nothing i can do about this, am I right?
I don't think there is anything to be done about this. While IE does use ClearType fonts by default (this can be turned off in Tools > Internet Options > Advanced (tab) > Multimedia (settings option) > "Always use ClearType for HTML" (checkbox) ), turning it off doesn't seem to change the fact that IE will render text slightly differently than FF, Chrome, Opera etc. Even if it did fix it, it's a client-side option so you'd still be out of luck.
So, yeah you're stuck with some difference in text rendering based on the browser.
HOWEVER, you can try google's web fonts:

They seem to look very similar cross-browser, though I see a slight difference between IE8 and FF5.
Plus, they look pretty cool and you don't need to install them on your system to use them.
There is no way to activate this from your website. Window's ClearType can only be activated in other programs via Windows' settings. It's not a browser feature, it's an OS feature.
I have an <audio> element in a webpage. I'm happy to use the native browser controls, which are fine in Firefox, Safari, and Chrome for the Mac.
However, Chrome (12.0.742.122 on Windows 7) is displaying the native audio player without any background:
For comparison's sake, here's how it looks on Chrome (14.0.835.0) on OSX:
I realise my Mac's a couple of versions forward (it's on the dev channel) but this seems like a surprising issue. Any idea how to fix it?
Alternatively, can anyone recommend a completely painless player (with flash fallback) that I can drop it to style them all the same?
If you wrapped it in a div with a medium-gray background, wouldn't it work around the problem in Chrome 12 and still look the same in Chrome 14?
This is a known bug: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=82170
every one
like most of developer web developer i hate ie, buts many people still use it ,
my problem is the text on ie is really ugly , on other modern browser is clean and clear
any solution js or css to fix this without modifying the browser setup ?
thx
Text in newer versions of IE should support ClearType, however some animations in jQuery and JavaScript cause dodgy opacity issues with ClearType.
If you are talking about IE6 and Windows XP - could I suggest this:

This blog is about detecting whether the client is using ClearType.
I built a website and it looks fine in browsers like IE and Firefox, but the background does not show up in an AOL browser. Is there a special way I need to code the background image or any tips on how to make it compatible?
Firstly, AOL Browser has not existed since July 2005... However I will take AOL Browser to mean AOL Explorer for this answer, which it has been named since 2005. If I am wrong... Update your web browser (Get rid of AOL and use another mainstream one)
AOL Explorer was built on the Trident HTML renderer, AKA MSHTML... Also implemented in (You guessed it) Internet Explorer.
If you are using AOL Browser, upgrade IE to get a newer version of Trident.
Secondly, you need to include your source code so we can see if you are using Trident version compatible HTML.
So in short, provide us with the source code of your <head> tag so we can make sure you are doing it properly and upgrade IE to the newest version (or at least version 6).
