Browser Compatibility Guide

[Brett]

I'm seeing plenty of individual compatibility issues addressed and older
threads. Rather than searching for possibly numerous individual issues, one
at a time, does anyone know of a comprehensive guide for browser
compatibility issues. Or perhaps a way to analyze your code with a tool of
some sort.

I am particularly interested in the following browsers:
IE7
IE6
FireFox
Safari

Thanks

Hey Vincent:

Here's a few pages I found that might help some. They would be pieces of
what I'm looking for.

Also, watch the sizing of your containers, such as panels. Some of mine
were off, but certain browsers made adjustments for me and some didn't.

Also: BrowserCaps update for modern browsers,

Last updated in May 2005, so I don't know how applicable it is to .NET 2 and
later.
