Hello all,

Im using a PC, and one of my clients has just let me know that a friend of his who uses a Mac can see issues with his website that I cant see.

Is there a way of me being able to run a Mac browser on my PC so I can see what the problem is.

It would be good to be able to see all the browsers too, rather than just say IE.

Cheers

You should install all the main browsers on your windows computer: IE 6, 7, 8 & 9, firefox, chrome, Opera & Safari. You should find all the cross platform browsers show no rendering difference on the mac, but some fonts are rendered differently on mac, so it's worth checking every site on mac just to be sure.

Hope that helps :)

Browsershots.org can help you see the problem, it offers little assistance in debugging however.
