Browsing a webpage

Instead of leaving a big or an empty area in the first form in my
program - I would like to have a rectangular control such as a TPanel
etc. placed in the form like the attached picture. In such control it
will work like a single/simple tab browser. If a user clicked at a
Hyperlink in such control, it would open the IE or FireFox etc. in
another window.

What is the exact control for such purpose ? And could you please give
simple/sample coding ?

One component the you can use is TIpHtmlPanel (In the IPro package).
See ${Lazarus}/examples/turbopower_ipro for example.

In the sample project of that, it only opens html files.
But I would like to have a panel in my TForm that can browse a website
such as www.freepascal.org
