Test website compatibility with different browsers

Please tell me how to test my website campatibility with different browsers.
Thanks,
Dan

And you may be doing what I do: Developing on a Macintosh computer running OS X. I do have an emulator for Linux, but not for Windows, so I cannot run IE—except I can.
Here's how I do it.
Use Virtual Box. You can set up installations of Windows to run the Three Big Browsers that you need to test on, like I have:
I can run any of the three virtual machines and test whe I am doing in a Microsoft browser. I no longer support Internet Exploiter 6. My clients are  not interested in China.

  • Testing website in Dreamweaver for compatibility in different browsers

    Hi,
    A while ago, I had read on my facebook wall (but can't find that comment anymore) that Dreamweaver had recently made an upgrade; we are now able test our website in Dreamweaver for compatibility in different browsers and that it also tells us what needs to be fixed for our site to work within certain browsers. Where do I go for that exactly?
    Thanks

    There is an extension for DW called browserlab I think. Seems slow to me but I havent used it much.
    browsershots.org is a good site where you can test your pages in most any browser ever invented. Its somewhat slow, depending on how many browsers you want to test, but I like it.

    1
    Close all iWork applications
    2
    Uninstall Keynote; this must be done with an application remover tool to delete the installation properly. Appcleaner is known to work correctly for this purpose, it is free and can be downloaded from here: Appcleaner Download
    3
    empty the trash
    4
    shutdown the Mac and restart. After the start up chime, hold down the shift key until the apple logo appears
    let the Mac complete the start up procedure completely, it will take longer than usual as the hard drive is being repaired
    5
    Reinstall Keynote by logging into the Mac App Store using download / install

    I have absolutely no idea why this is. I havent been able to
    test this in internet explorer, but i'm guessing it will show the
    same error. My question then is, why is it that the code below
    works for one browser and not for another?

    Font Rendering
    Every browser and operating system and browser and operating sytem version (just about) renders text differently. Chrome on Windows is currently the worst at rendering text, since it's using an old Windows API which uses an outdated anti-aliasing algorithm for the text. So text in Chrome on Windows generally looks worse that text drawn in other browser or on other operating systems. Typekit has a 7 part blog post here <http://blog.typekit.com/2010/10/05/type-rendering-on-the-web/> about all the ins and outs of font display in different browsers and operating systems.
    Scroll Effects
    Scroll effects are measured from the top of the browser window. Thus when the height of the browser window differs, even on the same computer, where the top of the browser window is relative to your objects when the page is scrolled all the way to the bottom will differ. Without the URL for your site/page, this is only a guess, but I suspect this is what you're encountering.
    Several customers have asked for an option to set the key position as a distance from the bottom of the browser window rather than always being from the top in order to create items that have a specific final location when a page is scrolled all the way to the bottom, but Muse doesn't currently have that feature.

  • Use Windows version to test website compatibility?

    Is it reasonable to use Safari for Windows (3.1) to test that my website is "compatible with Safari"?
    Are there known differences between the Mac and PC versions other than the fonts?
    Thanks a lot for your insights

    I believe Browsercam allows "remote access"; they even have a

  • Compatibility with older browsers

    I was surprised to see WLP8.1 being marketed as only supported on IE 5.5,
    Mozilla 1.2 and NS 7.0. For larger corporations, and customer-facing B2C
    websites, it does not make sense to shut out 5-10% of the users just because
    they are on older platforms...
    Having said that, does anyone know how to get WLP 8.1 to work with Netscape
    4.x and IE 4.x? I assume we would need to create a new skin with all
    compliant CSS and JS files - has anyone had any success with implementing
    something similar? Id appreciate any pointers on how to get started in the
    right direction.
    Thanks!

    When I used borders before Swing I created one panel
    for each type of border I wanted. Let the panels paint-
    method draw lines along the panels borders.
    Something like:
    public class FrameBorder extends Panel
    public void paint(Graphics g)
    Dimension d = getSize();
    Point p = getLocation();
    g.draw3DRect(p.x,p.y,d.width-1,d.height-1,true);
    g.draw3DRect(p.x+2,p.y+2,d.width-5,d.height-5,false);
    Should not take to much testing to come up with some nice-
    looking borders.

  • CGI Errors with different browsers

    I developed a form on a website
    http://www.brianspride.com/form.html
    and the form submits fine in Safari, but displays the error below
    in Firefox and IE. I looked on hundreds of web sites and was hoping
    Adobe would have a posting, but I found nothing. Any help would be
    much appreciated. I am a graphic designer with limited CGI
    know-how.
    Is there something that needs to be changed in the HTML or in
    the .pl file? I created the form in Dreamweaver and didn't know
    there would have to be additional programming. Any thoughts?
    Error: Bad Header Fields
    The header fields, which include recipient, email, realname
    and subject were filled in with invalid values. You may not include
    any newline characters in these parameters.

    Actually, that's not what would be causing the problem. We'd
    need to see
    the section of the script that is processing the form -
    action="/cgi-sys/formmail.pl"
    to see what might be happening.

    I'm afraid that it's never going to work. What you're attempting is akin to nailing jelly to a wall.
    Just focus on creating a simple functional form and style it with CSS.
    Other comments:
    Do you realize that you're doing the website a disservice by making all the text of the website part of a huge (300KB+) JPG?
    The top photo with the people looks great but the entire website will be slow and invisible to search engines due to the background JPG e.g. there's no text content on the pages.
    I understand the intent of the design in trying to convey Celtic colours and fonts but it's not the best approach for a website which Google can see and potential visitors can find online. In addition, it's inaccessible to vision impaired users who cannot change colours or resize text due to the JPG and maintenance will be tough since you have to recreate the images every time.
    Use a DW template, keep the colour theme and group photo, drop the background JPG with embedded Celtic font and use CSS-styled text wherever possible.

  • ELM Compatibility with different versions of CUCM

    Hi,
    We have several CUCM servers that are using the same ELM licensing server and now we want to upgrade one Call Manager server from 9.1.1 to 9.1.2. All the other servers and ELM will remain at 9.1.1. 
    Is this setup compatible ? Will the 9.1.2 CUCM server be able to speak with the 9.1.1 ELM server?
    Thanks,

  • Problem with different browsers when I save pdf

    Hi I have server side application which open some pdf form and populate it with values and some javascript(I use FDFToolkit to do that). A client connects with a browser to my server opens the form in the browser window and after that saves the form as pdf to his local computer. When the client uses InternetExplorer 7 the pdf form on the client computer(the form is open with acrobat 9 pro) works exactly as in the browser window but when the form is saved with Firefox 3.0.3 the form is open without the values and javascript in it. Can someone help ?

    > is simple using some c++ api but i wanna to know about that api from which
    > i can convert the doc to pdf.
    There are many free converters on the web. Also, if you are working with
    Office 2007, you can save as pdf natively.
    But you didn't give much detail - are you trying to do this automatically?
    What's the workflow that has you considering C++ as the route to your
    solution?

  • Since loading Firefox version 5 all my emails from talktalk have all become "undefined" and will not allow me to click onto open box. Only access from other computers with different browsers will. Problem with Firefox or problem with Talktalk?

    Hi David,
    Thank you for your detailed question. It sounds like the real issue is pdf files. Are there any antivirus/firewalls that might be blocking this specific file type? or are there any preferences in your control panel that might be blocking this?
    Do you have any stored preferences for PDF files in Firefox?

Some of you may not see my problem when you open up the page which is good. For you guys, the way to see my problem is to 'zoom out' of the screen and to do that press 'ctrl' and '-'
    Is there any way of avoiding this?

  • If I have more than one secure website open with different windows, is the information I provide on one website secure from the other websites?

    The question really says it all. For some purposes, it would be helpful to have more than one password protected website open at the same time so I can go back and forth between them. However, I don't want to risk my passwords and other information being available in the process.
    Thanks for your help.
