Can modern browser supports HTTP via UDP

that's the question. Dose anyone know?

I wonder If I could develop a UDP protocol based application to enhance service response.

There is a reason HTTP uses TCP. TCP provides reliability, e.g. no lost, no duplicate and no reordered data. This features are necessary, so that you don't get any broken content back from the server and no broken uploads. Of course you can re-implement this in UDP - but I doubt that you will have improved response time compared to TCP when you are done.
