Features
Cross-Browser Compatibility Check
and CSS Advisor
One of the most difficult ongoing problems
for Web developers is the inconsistency that
exists among browsers. The new Cross-Browser
Compatibility Check and CSS Advisor in
Dreamweaver are designed to make it easier for
you to create standards-compliant pages that
display and function reliably in a variety of settings.
Dreamweaver first identifies HTML and CSS
features that are likely to cause browser-rendering
problems. From the Results panel, you can
then access CSS Advisor, a community-created
website that describes the most common
browser rendering issues and suggests possible
workarounds. The integration between local
authoring tool and online knowledge base
makes it possible to stay current with the
ever-changing CSS and browser landscape.

At any time during the development process,
you can check your pages against a configurable
set of common browsers. A concise results panel
will cite warnings and errors that you can filter
for easy review. Selecting any issue will allow
you to see the problem, ignore the problem for
all pages, or get more information and possible
workarounds. Issues are even highlighted in
code view, adding warning and error icons to
the page sidebar, and underlining the problem
code in each line.
Check your documents using the Browser Compatibility Check panel
(File > Check Page > Browser Compatibility).
