dadamssg87 Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 What do you use to check the way your design/css looks in internet explorer? Do you have windows computers at hand or do you use some kind of software?

spiderwell Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 i got a pc laptop and a mac, but you can install a windows environment on a mac and do it that way, but most mac users would rather suck dogpoop popsicles than do that....

dadamssg87 Posted May 10, 2011 Author Share Posted May 10, 2011 haha yeah i don't want to do that. The creator of jQuery was doing an AMA on reddit the other day and he said he used VMWare. Was wondering if anybody on here used something like that. I'm developing locally on MAMP. I was hoping i didn't have to push everything to my host, then dust off and hook up my pc desktop to look at it through IE.

gizmola Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 You can run Parallels or VMware or Sun virtualbox which is free. You still need a licensed copy of windows to install, but it's a good solution, and you can actually test against various different versions of windows and different IE versions by creating multiple virtual machine images.
