IE Tester (Testing ie6, ie7, etc easily)

StevenBullen · 2009-08-21 12:22:40

I was watching a video the other day that was actually to do with wordpress theme creation.

Anyway... on the video he used a neat bit of software for rendering ie6, ie7, etc without having multiple browers installed.

Here is the link...

I have it installed and it works a treat.

Any other suggestions then let me know.

Cheers, giving it a go now. Seems handy in some ways, but I'm not 100% convinced... My native install of IE shows a border around iframes unless I set frameborder="0", but IETester doesn't If it isn't 100% the same as a real install it isn't much use...

It also just crashed when I wasn't even using it, minimized it and went back to working and all of a sudden it popped up the front and crashed.

I always used "Multiple IEs" when I used Windows. It never crashed. ^^

That's what I was going to use originally, but apparently it doesn't work on Vista. It also looks like it's not maintained anymore (I see a complaint about IE8 not being offered).

If you've found a bug, report it! They even use PunBB/FluxBB

Weird, I did do a few checks on broken sites and it picked up everything.
