An essential part of developing a website is testing to make sure it displays correctly in different browsers and on different operating systems.
Here are a couple of sites that can help with this.
browsers.evolt.org is an archive of old browser versions for windows, mac, linux and other operating systems. You can download virtually every browser that has ever existed and test your sites with them. Handily, the old versions of Internet Explorer can be installed as ’stand alone’ applications so they don’t interfere with your current IE version.
If you don’t have access to browsers on different operating systems, Browsershots.org is an excellent free service that generates screenshots of a webpage in different browsers on Linux, Windows and Mac. Of course, this only shows that a page is displaying correctly, it doesn’t show anything dynamic like hover effects etc, but it’s better than nothing.
