I’m sure this topic has been discussed before, but I can’t find it. Can someone please tell me what browser Yahoo’s editor’s use? Thank you.

I don't think they have any standard or required browser. I've heard rumors that some editors deliberately use really strange browsers, just to catch bad site coding. (Not to scare you, but...)

most editors will look at your site using several browsers to make sure you have cross browser compatability. I recently had a site rejected because it worked in IE and failed in NS. I fixed it up and it was accepted on appeal.

Let me add that the same is true at GoTo

I've seen editors using both IE and NS.

They were a mac shop first in 95-97. Many of those mac's are still in use, but they've been buying pc's since then. Don't know the numbers, but 1 out of 2 sites I've submitted has been hit with a mac. Most often those macs are 14inchers at 640x400 running netscape.

Had a review and acceptance yesterday - logs reflected a few minutes' worth of activity from "Mozilla/4.75 [en] (Windows NT 5.0; U)" and apparently no subsequent review from other IP/browser etc.

Thanks for the responses. I thought that with GoTo, you paid your in.
