Default Browser compatibility - CSS - 11-07-2005 , 06:47 PM






I have a print.css set up for the following page, to eliminate unwanted
elements in the print process:
http://www.mariagrist.net/dev/svp/legals.htm
I have used an image and a heading:
<img src="images/print-logo.gif" alt="" width="482" height="98"
class="printonly"></p>
<h3 align="center" class="printonly">Privacy Policy</h3>
and in the css:
..printonly { display:none;}
It works, but I am assuming the image and heading show up in older browsers
which have limited or no CSS compatibility.

My question is, how do I find out which browsers will show the image and
heading on the screen? Is the proportion sufficiently large to worry about?
thanks

you can download these browsers from the web: Opera, FireFox, Netscape
(Do a Google search for old versions of Netscape for download), Omniweb,
and more... also, old versions of Internet Explorer. If you are using a
PC you might not be able to install different versions of IE
unfortunately, because they bundled it with the OS.

Then you can test your pages in all these different browsers and see for
yourself how they render your code.

Is the proportion sufficiently large to worry about?

You would need to dive down to v4 browsers to find any that might not
support media stylesheets. Most people here don't worry about such antiques
anymore....
