Odyssey Web Browser Odyssey Web Browser is a WebKit-based browser developed by Fabien Coeurjoly and it is originally based on the Origyn Web Browser core from Sand-Labs/Pleyo, however since then it has been extensively developed to become a full-blown desktop MUI browser with modern functionality. The original Origyn Web Browser project was a web browser core optimized for consumer electronics (CE) devices and embedded system such as mobile phones, portable media players, set-top boxes (STB), TV decoders and various other consumer electronic products such as GPS, home-gateways, Web-radios, digital video recorder (PVR), DVD recorders, wireless devices, etc. OWB is based on Webkit by Apple Inc. and its ease of porting is possible upon a pratical browser abstraction layer called OWBAL (OWB Abstraction Layer), the existence of this abstraction layer architecture dramatically eases the task of integrating OWB on any CE devices resulting in a fast and easy implementation on target platforms. The aim of the abstraction layer is to allow CE software producers to leverage extant libraries instead of needing to port the entire project with its full set of dependencies. It support full Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) 2.1, CSS3, styleable form controls, enhanced rich text editing, XML technologies, XPath (GTK port), SVG (partial SVG 1.1 full) (GTK port, Qt port and Amiga port), XSLT processor, JavaScript API for XSLT, MathML, notifications, SquirrelFish Extreme (SFX) on x86, HTML5.
