Netscape Navigator was a very popular web browser in the early to mid-1990s. Part of its popularity was based on its unique features, Netscape’s developers created and eventually standardised: javascript, cookies, frames and more giving Netscape Navigator a strong technical advantage over its rivals. Another key invention was “on the fly” rendering of webpages in 1994, before this, all web browsers had to load the whole page before displaying any of it, this feature allowed the webpage to display text while the images were still downloading, a major advantage when almost all users were on slow dial-up connections.
