Re: [WSG] Testing in IE7 both Win XP and Vista

2009-03-17 Thread Peter Mount
So as I'm specifying font families in the css it shouldn't be an issue  
then if I only test for IE7 in Vista and not in Windows XP as well.


Thanks

testing on one should be enough.


Athough Vista has more fonts, the core fonts exist on both systems.


Any font differences (between versions 3.0.6 and 5.0 of core fonts) will 
only affect lesser used languages, and are mostly likely to be 
irrelevant in this case.

Hello

Is it necessary to test web sites in IE7 on both Win XP and Vista? Or is
it good enough to just test in IE7 on Vista?

I'm just worried about IE7 rendering differently on Win XP compared to
Vista.

Thanks

Hi there Peter,

From what I see, it is safe to test on just the one. Running Vista side 
by side on two PC's
