What Browsers Do You Test With?
The Netscape 8.0 thread made me think about the browsers people use to test with. I only test in IE and Firefox now. What does everyone else use? Just wondering.

Mac IE to do reviews, it's the lest forgiving of all the Mac browsers.
I use Adobe GoLive to do my html and it has a very good Windows IE 6 preview built into it that I use when I'm making my sites. Other then that I use Mozilla and Safari but I have to be careful with Safari since it seems to properly render even really bad code. |
My primary browser is Mozilla, and of course I check my pages with Internet Exploder too. I rarely find anything that passes the Mozilla test, that doesn't also work in IE.
|
Used to just test in IE, but after a couple of surprizes I now test everything in FF as well. According to my server stats that should cover about 95% of all surfers.
|
I use netscape myself, but for the final check it's always in IE - I'm forever finding surprise screwups that way :D
To check for scroll tho, I do a final look in my good old msn browser, I know if there's no scroll there I'm ok anywhere. Ponygirl |
IE and FireFox. I used to use NetScape 4.7 but gave up on that a year ago
|
I use Opera and check my stuff in IE
|
Firefox and IE
|
I only use IE6
|
lynx and Firefox, and IE after everything is done... then firefox to figure out if it still looks the same after ripping the code up for IE, then firefox again to check if it still looks the same, then IE, then firefox to see if I can figure out why that one table just won't line up in IE. Then firefox again after the table finally lines up in IE, then IE to see if it looks the same after having to make adjustments in Firefox.
At that point, the site looks horrible for lynx, but, I'm too lazy to care at that point. |
ie (most important), firefox (2nd important), safari (if u care about mac users). the money is in ie or ff so if it works in those, you're good 2 go ;)

Netscape and IE.
But, as of 2-3 weeks ago, I also do a test in IE on my wifes machine because she has Norton Internet Security running. - |
Another vote for Firefox and Internet Exploder here :D
So far, everything built and tested in FF looks fine in IE. Add in the web developer extension for FF (page resize, html/css validators)...FF is a very useful too |thumb |
ie & firefox
|
First I used only IE for testing but after noticing that alot of stuff looked like shit.. so I'm using IE, FireFox and Opera now.
|
Firefox, Opera, then the (often) disappointing IE test.
Fix. Tweak. Include IE only hacks to fix its lack of CSS compliance and support. Test. Repeat. Then I run it through Lynx for shits and giggles. |
