There are standards for what browsers should do, but each browser is free to interpret those standards as they see fit. They might handle some things slightly differently or they might not bother implementing something altogether.

When developers create a website they will often work with a particular browser. Good developers will test on all browsers to make sure it works but a lot of developers don’t bother.
