    Is it possible to make a browser based app without dependence on a particular browser? If yes please suggest the possible way? If not then what are the alternate, I need a small application where user will not need to log in again and again, once logged in then he/she can do use that. I made a Chrome browser widget but client needs without depending upon particular browser. Any suggestions? Thanks

      HTML/CSS/JavaScript Use only the parts supported by all major browsers... Use some libraries, supporting all the browsers you want...

        Almost every web application is build neglecting the browser dependencies; CSS and JavaScript run natively on browsers just a difference of a bits come in action. Such as, how a CSS render a pixel and so on. Otherwise, how much APIs do JavaScript engine support etc. Otherwise, there is not much difference in the other all application development. The proof for this is: CodeProject runs on all the browsers. Just create a simple web application, you may use ASP.NET for that, it will have authentication, dynamic page generation, database connectivity etc. all set up for you. You can then move onwards and develop your own logic to run in that application.

            They are definitely browser-based, until now there haven't been a platform to write cross-browser extensions. Chrome and Opera share the same API, so you may use it, Firefox is a bit of different beast and that is when you might require some third-party tooling, which is not guaranteed to work with everything but will give a good way to start.

              When you're looking at implementing a feature that has a complex central element (like BLOB), you can always check: [Can I use... Support tables for HTML5, CSS3, etc](http://caniuse.com/) Most features do have shims for cross-browser support, but I tend to avoid those for overhead reasons. Better to make it play nice at a basic level, IMO.
