AMSD Ariadna is the first Russian web browser ever developed.[citation needed] It was developed by Advanced Multimedia System Design (AMSD) in early 1994.
History
To spread word of the Internet in Russia, AMSD researched the web browser in 1994. It was released in 1995 and was ported to Windows 95 and Windows NT.[citation needed]
By the time of its introduction, Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator, two no-cost browsers, were dominating the Russian browser market. Ariadna, however, wasn't free software and, despite its high quality, failed to make a stance in the market and was terminated a few years later.[1]
Features
Being a pioneer browser, Ariadna has limited functionality compared to today's browsers. Some features include:[1]
- Data filter
- HTML 3.2 support
- E-mail and text box support
- PNG support,[2] including transparency (but not as background images)
- Limited Java support (only JDK 1.02)
- 50,000 word English-Russian dictionary[3]
Ariadna does not support animated GIFs or JavaScript.
