Line 68:
In the case of ''http'', ''https'', ''file'', and others, once the resource has been retrieved the web browser will display it. [[HTML]] and associated content (image files, formatting information such as [[Cascading Style Sheets|CSS]], etc.) is passed to the browser's [[layout engine]] to be transformed from [[markup language|markup]] to an interactive document, a process known as "rendering". Aside from HTML, web browsers can generally display any kind of content that can be part of a web page. Most browsers can display images, audio, video, and [[XML]] files, and often have [[Plug-in (computing)|plug-ins]] to support [[Adobe Flash|Flash]] applications and [[Java applets]]. Upon encountering a file of an unsupported type or a file that is set up to be downloaded rather than displayed, the browser prompts the user to save the file to disk.
Information resources may contain [[hyperlinks]] to other information resources. Each link contains the URI of a resource to go to. When a link is clicked, the browser navigates to the resource indicated by the link's target URI, and the process of bringing content to the user begins again. Really?
