I've been doing intranet work for a while now, where the only browser we had to support was the one that came installed on company PCs. Have recent IE's oddities pretty well dealt with, but looking at the wider world, I'm wondering how folks manage development for multiple browsers. I'm thinking about relatively small shops that don't have enormous resources devoted solely to QA.
Specifically... - Do you serve different style sheets or pages depending on the browser and version? How many? - Are you coding to W3C standards? Which one(s)? How much does that actually help your pages be more universally compatible? - What's an accurate, up to date source of info on html, css, and js capabilities and quirks for a lot of different browsers and versions? - It doesn't appear that you can have multiple versions of IE installed on the same machine. If you have to support them, do you actually have separate machines whose only purpose is to be equipped with IE 4, 5, and 6, maybe even 3? How else can you test? - Do you have mac, linux and pc browser test machines? - For general public sites, what do you consider a reasonable list of browsers and versions that you need to support?
