Default Is there a browser simulator

Hi, I am using Linux to develop my site, so I use Mozilla Firexox or
KOnqueror to see my pages. I haven't sees it in IE. Is there a simulator
of browser so that I can see differences?

It's not a simulator, but at least it shows what pages will look like.

Although I do not use Linux, I generally see no difference between Firefox
and IE on my window machine. However, Opera does show up some differences,
usually when I have been a little careless with my coding.

I tried to validate my pages, and I had to change the face of the site.
Now it looks different from what it was. So I don't imagine how it looks
in IE.

If only using it for testing your site, you should be OK. That's what I
do. I've been meaning to play with setting up standalone IE versions in
Wine or something on Linux, but haven't had a chance yet.

If they have Windows, they have IE.

And in fact NS 8.0 has an option to use the IE engine.

I'll repeat what William said... If you have Windows, then you have IE.

Go to Start > Run and type "iexplore" and hit ENTER.
