Philip Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 I just stumbled across this site tonight, thought I'd share it because it seems pretty helpful to me: http://www.xenocode.com/Browsers/ It allows you to test your designs in virtual versions of major browsers (right now they have IE 6-8 , FF 1 & 2, Chrome, Opera and Safari.) Anybody else ever used them? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/153105-testing-designs-in-mulitple-browsers/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolfRage Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 When you said FF 1 & 2, I was like what no FF3? But I see you meant FF 2 & 3, sounds pretty cool. But I don't like having to install there .exe to launch the online app; just because I am currently on work computers with no install rights. I will have to try it out on my personal comp though.

Philip Posted April 8, 2009 Author Share Posted April 8, 2009 Yeah, my bad, I meant 2+3. Yeah I don't really like it either, but it beats trying the impossible: installing ie 6 Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/153105-testing-designs-in-mulitple-browsers/#findComment-804427 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philip Posted April 8, 2009 Author Share Posted April 8, 2009 D'oh! Haha, guess that's what I get for not looking on the main site I'm surprised I haven't run into more errors, only issue was a freeze on Opera - but a re-launch did okay.

asmith Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 They are all screenshots, aren't they? Can you actually browse your site with your desired browser?

Daniel0 Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 Errr, why .exe? Because that's the file name extension that's used for executable files on a Windows platform?
