I know some of you have had to deal with this issue: different results when rendering a page in Netscape and Explorer.

I am looking for resources where I can inform myself of the known peculiarities about how each browser renders a tag different from the others. For example, I know that in Netscape you cannot do the single pixel image (of any color) and then alter the width (in percentage points) to make it mimic a straight line.

Also, if there is information that specifically talks about IE 5.0 for the Macintosh it would be of great help. That browser seems to break almost every page I design.

Thanks.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
