XBrowser (eXtended web Browser)

XBrowser is totally free and open-source java application for browsing the web. It will execute on any OS supporting Java 2 platform. It is fully multithreaded and it means that you can open several web pages simultaneously in one session. It is customizable, providing options for changing the way XBrowser looks and operates. It provides the basic features that every web browser needs to support plus much more advanced features such as printing and print preview, flexible searching among history, bookmarks and page contents, import/export facility in order to have your bookmarks from other famous browsers (IE, Netscape and Opera). Auto-Complete and Domain-Completion are two of the other useful features to reduce your amount of typing and save your time while surfing the net. Plugins/Extensions are also supported to extend the functionality of XBrowser in many ways. JavaScript and Cookies as well as page-caching are other great facilities being supported. All the program configuration as well as the bookmarks and history are kept in XML format in order to increase the data portability. It has been internationalized and ready to support more languages.

* Please contact me in the case you want to use XBrowser (or part of it) in your commercial products/projects *

Internationalization

XBrowser finally got internationalized. And currently it has English, Portuguese, Russian, Greek, Swedish, Spanish, German, French, Italian and Bulgarian languages support! ;-) More and more languages are going to be supported in future!

Would you like to have it in your own language too ? Do you want to help me to provide support for your own (or favorite) language(s) ? Just drop me a line if you're interested. I'll let you know the steps you should do!

Get Involved

XBrowser invites you to participate as much or as little as you choose ;-) There are a variety ways to participate in this project:

• Directly getting involved in development ;-)
• Writing documentation
• Adding new languages support (i18n)
• Providing me some screen shots of XBrowser on different platforms you have access
• Requesting/suggesting additional features/enhancements
• Reporting bugs

In either of the above cases just drop me a line, tell me your interests and sections you want to help me on. There are lot of ideas to be implemented but unfortunately my time is limited. And I would certainly like to receive some helps at this job.

<< Let's make XBrowser a wonderful product ! ;-) >>
