browser shots

[catfish]

I am working on a website at http://www.cowichanflyandtackle.ca/index.php?page=new-page I've just used the browsershots.org to check my page and I see that most of my top content is missing viewed with IE 7 / XP so far. Is this really accurate. I wonder if some of you would look for me and tell me what you see and if its missing, maybe you know why?? I don't know where to start with that one:confused:

Hi there catfish,

try adding display:inline; to your #banner rules.

You may want to add a png hack for IE6. You are not getting transparency on many of your images. There are a couple ways to do this. I use this one.

Hi there,

Browser testing is always a pain which is why I always do it as I develop. A couple of tool that could be useful to you (and anyone who hasn't already got them installed!) are:

IE Tester - Google it, very good for speeding up browser testing gives you a live preview as well which is very useful!

Fire bug - This is a plug in for FF but its invaluable when testing. FireFox takes a more interpretive approach when rendering a page where as IE is more exact (doesn't cut you any slack).

Firebug Lite - Little JS script file allows you to use FireBug in IE this can be very useful just to see what elements are being retarded etc.

Just to mention a few!

P.S. IE tester can be a little daft when it comes to rendering JS.
