Re: FN-FORUM: Sitecheck - Updating my website - using CSS

date posted 13th March 2008 12:38

On a mac use opera for more checks, this displays the same as what
internet explorer would, something i found out after a site I was
modifying for html validation, looked fine in safari and ff, but was
screwed up on IE, using 2 macs I dont use windows very often, but
like I say, opera on a mac will do the trick.

Give it a go.
