Testing the site for the browsers

[traveller]

I have to say this is one of the most annoying thing I have to do as a web designer: try to make the site look decent in all browsers. Some display the pages nicely, while others butcher my designs and force me to re-work some codes. What browsers do you test your sites on? Just IE? or some more of them?

I here ya. I pretty much test my sites on all the browsers. I use BrowserShots to view the different browsers and it saves me a ton of time.

I'm guilty of not checking out all the browsers when I make a site. I'm also guilty of not checking for broken links. I'm also guilty of writing poor articles when no writers are available.

you might also google "multipleIE" ... it comes in handy somewhat for nostalgia, but you'll eventually code well enough to lose concern for backward compatibility and check new devices or browser versions (maybe)

I tested for IE and firefox. That browsers shot link is a gem though!

Sadly IE 6 and earlier won't even launch in Vista without some fairly complicated hacking.

We typically test all public pages with IE7, Firefox and chrome. Occasionally I'll fire up some lesser used browsers but I've found that if I get a consistent display across these three I'm unlikely to encounter problems with other software.

i check IE, Firefox, Opera - top3 from my google-analitics stats

IE & Firefox are 90% of my traffic. I have actually seen more iphone traffic than safari, so I think that might be my next task.

I test in as many browsers as possible IE, Firefox, Safari, Chrome for IE I usually go back to IE6 from now on I will probably test for just 7 & 8.
