What is a Web browser? 

Web browsers are computer programs that retrieve HTML documents from remote Web servers by means of a protocol called HTTP, and they enable a computer to display the document on a monitor. Each Web browser has its unique way of transferring the HTML coding into a Web page. The development of Web browsers from the mid 1990s which facilitate visually appealing Web pages has contributed to the popularity of the Web. Every year or two Web browsers are upgraded with enhancements to take account of new developments in Web design programming. You may wish to look at your Web pages on various Web browsers to see how they appear.

According to the web browser being used by visitors, there will be variations in what they see.

The most popular Web Browsers are Internet Explorer (Microsoft) and Netscape but there are many others:
