A while back, I made a mistake with some of the JavaScript dealing with the signup form on this site. I fixed it, so if anyone is still having a problem signing up, just post a comment to this post letting me know. But... the problem would NOT happen for me... I could signup and it would work. What does this mean? This means I should have tested the page in more than one browser! And if fact, I did... but sometime later, I made a slight tweak that broke it under some conditions... and after making the slight tweak to the code, I only tested with Internet Explorer. I know, I know... if you've read some of my other posts here on debugging JavaScript or HTML/CSS, you know that I recommend to test and view your pages in several browsers. But sometimes we don't follow our own advice and we look foolish!
So I wondered how many different browsers people were using to view this blog. Here are some stats from the last few months. This shows that Microsoft is loosing ground with Internet Explorer: if you have a blog or web site you should test your pages with Internet Explorer and something like Firefox that uses the mozilla engine.

I've had an email that said my site ( http://christiandivorce.1hwy.com/index.html ) does not show up correctly in foxfire and mozilla...
I don't know why this is but I can't find a way (so far) to test it without downloading the foxfire and mozilla browsers (I have an earlier computer and am uncomfortable downloading these)
Is there a way a test can be run by me to see it for myself without getting these browsers?
Thanks
