Which of the following statements is correct regarding the creation of the World Wide Web ?
None of the above
The real sequence of events is that Tim Berners-Lee, working at CERN in Geneva, wrote his proposal in 1989 and had the first web server, the first browser and the first webpage running by 1990–91. The World Wide Web Consortium was founded only later, in 1994. Every statement can now be checked against that timeline.
The claim that the first server, browser and webpage were created at CERN in 1995 is wrong on the date, since they existed four to five years earlier.
The claim that the first webpage came after the formation of W3C reverses the order, because the page of 1991 predates the consortium of 1994.
The claim that Berners-Lee developed the first webpage at MIT in 1991 is wrong on the place: the work was done at CERN, and MIT enters the story only later as the host of the W3C.
The claim that W3C created the first web browser before CERN is impossible, since the consortium did not exist when that browser was written.
All four statements therefore fail, so the answer is None of the above.
