What is Gecko?

Gecko is the HTML rendering engine that is used in Firefox, Mozilla and Netscape. It is basically the part of the browser that handles the main viewing window and does not include menus, toolbars, status lines or even Javascript execution.

It is part of the XULRunner engine from Mozilla that the Browse activity uses.
