Hi,
Does anyone know of a site where you can see how a site looks in other browsers and os. I know our site designed with css does strange things on our imac (running ie) comapred to our PC(running ie). Also I saw a wide aspect monitor doing strange things too.
Thanks

Crumbs. I've just seen my site in Safari for the first time and it looks better than it does in Mozilla on a PC. How did that happen? >;->

Thanks for the links, sorry if its been asked before. I spent a very worthwhile time with that browsercam -its a shock to see how what you thought was a beautiful site turn out to be this hideous thing on other browsers. It even showed that my ie6 (which I design on) appearance was horrible too, obviously relying on my own pc too much. From our own imac I knew I had a mac issue, macs seem very sensitive to flaws in code, one left off closing </>tag and the whole thing falls apart so its a good tester in a way. A few weaks with the style doc and graphic sizes and its looking much better.

Yes, IE on a Mac is a whole different set of code than IE on a PC. They only have a brandname in common, and at this stage of the web game they are both creepy old.

MS - what have you done for us lately, eh?
