There has been a lot in the news lately about the recent court ruling that forced Microsoft to offer its European customers alternative browsers to Internet Explorer.
As a result, there are a lot of new browsers that are likely to be widely used. This could potentially be a nightmare for web designers, but it doesn’t have to be. There are 4 different rendering engines used by the different browsers. Provided you are are know what they are, you only need to test your website on 4 different browsers instead of 12.
