While Validate Markup checks your pages against a standard document from a recognized international
committee, Check Browser Compatibility relies on the Web-building community for its expertise. With the
Check Browser Compatibility feature, Dreamweaver currently inspects the page for 26 different CSS issues
that affect a full range of modern browsers from Internet Explorer 5 to Safari 2. In addition to pinpointing
the problematic code on your page and describing the error in the Results panel, the Check Browser
Compatibility feature also provides a link to the relevant page on Adobe??™s CSS Advisor site.
For details on each of the CSS rendering issues checked by Dreamweaver, see Chapter 30,
???Maximizing Browser Targeting.???
Dreamweaver checks the page against whichever browsers you specify in the Target Browsers dialog box,
opened by choosing Settings from the Browser Check menu. You have the option of choosing any or all of
six different browsers and specifying the minimum acceptable browser version.
The Check Browser Compatibility menu offers these options:
n Check Browser Compatibility: Checks the current page against the browser versions selected in
the Settings dialog box.
n Next Issue: Displays the first (or next) problem Dreamweaver found in Split view with the cause
of the error marked with a wavy red underline.
