I want to test a website on IE8 and I have my company's Bug tracking website which works ONLY on IE7 and previous versions of IE (hence I only have IE7 on my PC). So, if I wanna test for IE8, I can't upgrade IE7 to IE8. So, how can I keep IE7 on my PC, but still test for IE8 and other versions of IE? I have already referred this question. But I don't know how to use Mordernizr. Is it possible to keep both IE7 and IE8 on a single PC, single user???
Tell me more

I prefer IETester. I just download it and can test any version of IE. Here is the link of IETester http://www.my-debugbar.com/wiki/IETester/HomePage. Hope this will help you out. |

you can download IE9 from this link: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/internet-explorer/products/ie/home?WT.mc_id=MSCOM_EN_US_HP_SUPPORTHOME_131I1ENUS21314 after download and install, you have IE7, IE8 and IE9 in your system. just run IE and press F12 key, then click on Browser Mode: IE9, and choose IE version that you want. |

you can use IETestr and test your site in IE online. but better way to have any version of IE is IE9 and change version of its local! |

You could use sandboxie to install Internet Explorer 8 in a sandbox. That way the installation of IE8 will not overwrite the old IE7 installation and you should be able to run both in parallel. Another option is to create a virtual machine with VMWare Player or VirtualBox. I would recommend virtual machines to web developers anyway, because it allows to test websites not just on other browsers but also on entirely different operating systems. |
