Can anyone suggest a link or two where I could test my javascript in older browsers.

I tried downloading Netscape 4.0 but I was not able to install the .exe file on my computer.

I am using Windows XP but I think I might be missing a file off of my operating system.

So I would like the links if at all possible.

Thanks in advance...

Do you have mozilla firefox?

Yes I do..

Well, as nice as Firefox is, it won't really help you test Javascript on older browsers. You could try installing some of the various browsers here (http://browsers.evolt.org) - running Windows XP, you may have to run them under a compatibility mode, but even then they aren't guaranteed to work flawlessly or at all.

To be frank, with all of the major browsers these days being free, easily downloadable, and provided with readily available updates, people just don't have any excuse for not using a modern browser. I would say that you are entirely within your rights to ensure that your code works across a majority of modern browsers and expect your clientele to acquiesce to the present. If they can't put in the minimal effort to stay current, why should you put in the effort to accommodate them?

I'll say "AMEN" to that....
