Using Internet Explorer on Linux to test for bugs in your Joomla Website

Most web developers say 'Build for Firefox and test with Internet Explorer'. This presents a problem if your like me and prefer a Linux solution. Currently my distribution of choice is Ubuntu Linux.

So you just installed Ubuntu with Firefox, but you are worried that you can not fully test your sites because you are no longer running "Internet Explorer"? Here is an easy solution.

What is IEs4Linux?

IEs4Linux is the simpler way to have Microsoft Internet Explorer running on Linux (or any OS running Wine).

No clicks needed. No boring setup processes. No Wine complications. Just one easy script and you'll get three IE versions to test your Sites. And it's free and open source.

Who is the target public?

WebDesigners that want to move to Linux but still need to test their sites on IE.
People who have to open IE-only sites

The IEs installations are smaller than usual because they include only the necessary files to have a good test browser (there is no Outlook, Media Player etc).

Please, don’t use any of these IEs to navigate!! Get Firefox.
