Gecko Layout Engine

As my previous post goes about Microsoft's layout engine, this post has to be about the layout engine of Mozilla foundation. Being an open source community, Gecko is also an open source layout engine and a lot of web browsers have been made over it.

It was originally created by Netscape Communication Corporation, but all the current work and maintenance is being done at Mozilla Foundation.

The main purpose of development of this engine was to support open internet standards.
