Loading basic HTML

Postby raaman » 21 Jul 2016, 10:40

Whenever I log in to my email( gmail) account, at the bottom of the page, I see the message "Load basic HTML ( for slow connections)". What is it? Why it always appear there? Is it useful to us in any way? Will it speed up our internet surfing too?

According to https://support.google.com/mail/answer/15049?hl=en/,

it state that the basic HTML version do not load high-end features like chat, shortcuts and better Email formatting etc. So I guess that without loading those features, Gmail can be faster.

This feature allows users with slow internet speeds to connect to their google accounts.

From the above info., it clearly is useful.

Yes, it improves browsing speed.

Thanks for your simple, clear explanation.
To add onto this, the basic html feature ensures that you log into you gmail account with ease/fast.

Adding to @jacktheking's comment, using basic HTML, you won't be able to view attachment, especially photos! However, you can easily turn it back on.

Sometimes it's just a temporary problem that you can leave and come back later to cure.

When you have a slow internet connection the site only loads the skeleton of the site (HTML) without the CSS and Javascript, so you can get what you need faster.
