Tasman is a discontinued browser engine developed by Microsoft for inclusion in the Macintosh version of Internet Explorer 5. Tasman was an attempt to improve support for web standards, as defined by the World Wide Web Consortium. At the time of its release, Tasman was seen as the layout engine with the best support for web standards such as HTML and CSS.[1] Internet Explorer for Mac is no longer supported, but newer versions of Tasman were incorporated in some other Microsoft products.[2]
In 2003, Microsoft stopped development for Internet Explorer for Mac. In 2005, they discontinued support for the browser and in 2006 removed the application from the available Microsoft downloads site.
Tantek Çelik led the software team that developed the Tasman engine.[3] Tasman later became used as the layout engine for the MSN for Mac OS X and Office 2004 for Mac.
