Firefox

Great tip for testing a website for backwards browser compatibility.

Got some real work done for a client. I’m really thankful for web standards like HTML 4.01 Strict and CSS. I did some conversion of some client web pages over to HTML 4.01 Strict and CSS. I tested in Mozilla/Firefox, Internet Explorer, and Opera. Uploaded the finished web pages and notified the client. Then, I thought about doing a google search to see if there was a way to view the client’s web site using older browser standards. Whew! There was http://anybrowser.com and the client’s web pages degraded gracefully to the older web standards. Thanks in most part to HTML 4.01 Strict and CSS and the engineers who had the foresight to allow for graceful degradation. Thanks guys!
