It is basically the same as "browser" but also covers other kinds of software agents, for instance Web spiders that roam the web indexing pages, and printing agents that given a URL can retrieve and print pages. The term "implementor" refers to anyone implementing a browser or other software agent that processes HTML. Sorry, I can't help with the German. My knowledge of German is very weak. p.s. my book on HTML 4.0 is now available in a German translation from Addison Wesley: "Raggett on HTML 4", pub 1998.
