Question:
Previewing websites in different browsers?

I am a web designer and as most other web designers know, every browser displays websites differently.

I work on a mac, and I preview my websites in both safari and firefox but my problem is that when I send clients (who are usually on Windows) links to their mockups online, I am always told that it doesn't display properly or that there is some text cut off. Is there a website that I can go to that will show me a preview of a link in different browsers? Kind of like a simulation?

Just use this http://browsershots.org/



Browsershots makes screenshots of your web design in lots of different browsers, is free, open-source and entirely online.

Are you using tables to contain the text in a set size? If you set up your pages with tables, they should all be displayed the same in any browser.

Firefox has a plug-in that allows you to simulate pages on a IE browser.



Here are the sites where you can download the extension or plug-in.
