Abstract
Web pages compatible with different web browsers are seamlessly rendered within the same tab of a single web browser window. A first browser is executed in a computing device, and has an open browser window. A request is received at the first browser to navigate to a first page. The first page is determined to be incompatible with the first browser and compatible with a second browser. Under control by the first browser, an instance of the second browser is invoked without a browser window opening for the instance of the second browser. An address of the first page is provided to the instance of the second browser. The instance of the second browser renders the first page within a tab in the open browser window of the first browser.
