Elisa: You can have separate installs of Mozilla and NN, they will even share some preferences if you so wish, check out the site: http://www.mozilla.org/
thanks to a couple of geniuses who have 'cracked' MS IE you can now have more than one version of IE on the same partition, this only spread a week or so or go but I guess that was just before you rejoined. http://www.insert-title.com/web_design/?page=articles/dev/multi_IE and an easier one to download: http://www.skyzyx.com/archives/000094.php Cheryl posted these originally......... www.WellingtonLive.co.nz ----- Original Message ----- From: "Elisa Butler" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, November 23, 2003 9:06 AM Subject: [wdvltalk] Re: css problem - ( concerning browsers) : Cheryl : : Great post. : : I hope you don't mind me asking you these questions : which Mozilla do : you use and why did you recently remove NS 6.2 and do you intend on : installing NS 7.1 (or NS 7.2 if you can find it)? : : I'm asking because I would like to somewhat update my browsers for testing : purposes but still have that "fear" of losing some of my old ones : (meaning IE 5 and NS 4.77 being overwritten - is that even a word? ;-). : : I have NS 4.77, IE 5, Opera 5 & 6 and Mozilla 0.9.5.
