Hello,

What is the best way to achieve the above please?

I am using Firefox and Safari but need to check my code on IE, preferably 6 but I don't have a PC which would be the simplest solution..

There used to be something called ies4osx which I think was renamed to ies4mac, but I can't find a good direct link at the moment, I'm sure a little time searching will yield you results.

It's not perfect though, if you can get a Virtual Machine of Windows you could run ieTester on it, which is pretty good.

The guy just decided he'd completely obliterate any branding he had and focus on "WineBottler" (which includes the IEs4OSX stuff).

this only works with Intel Architecture Macs differentt to mine.

However, there is browsershots.org where you can select 10s of browsers that run on Linux, Windows and OS X amongst others, submit your URL and it will display the various screenshots..

No, it'll run on PPC Macs, too, they just called it Darwine.
