Windows 3.1 (originally codenamed Janus), released on March 18, 1992.
You are right, but by 93 there was full graphical web browsers for Windows 3.1.

you are kinda late. IE4 and up afaik has had image support and my circa '98 computer was preloaded with IE5. and im sure that image support was availble in windows 95 cuz our old computers back in elementary had them and they were able to browse image-laiden web pages.
but thats besides the original point. just trying to correct you a bit.

Hm, in 1999 my browser had just discovered images, programs being called from within the browser doesn't seem a very obvious extension of the technology at the time. Hell, I was just glad to find out that there was more than text to browsing. |
