Previews with different browser...

Hi, I’m new to this forum…so I hope I ask this correct.

I have just started using coffeecup and love it, I’ve used lots of other website software over the years but this one makes some time consuming steps simple like the snippets. I have made 3 websites so far.
Villafoodservice.com
cancunchef.com
MexicoHoneymoon.com
As you can tell from the websites, I now live in Cancun.

Anyway my issue is that the other programs I used to make websites let me put in different browser DISPLAYS not just what browsers but what display from that browser. I can’t seem to get HTML editor to give me different displays of explorer…so I have a couple of laptops (new and old on a really BIG desk) and have been using them as previews for older versions of explorer and different displays (after i ftp) Really time consuming, would prefer to be able to preview and fix before I even published.
Can you help?
am i missing something?
thanks

Hi Liza
In Menu - Tools you have an option "Another Browsers".
You must have the browsers installed in your computers and and fix the path at: Tools - Preferences and in the tab: "Browsers Testing". Here you fix the browser you want to test.
Hope this was clear too you

liza,

First, Lucky you! I bet Cancun is nice (never been to any tropical locale, so I'm just guessing).

Second, It sounds like you are asking about monitors of different resolutions. I recommend http://browsershots.org/ . You cna choose the browsers AND the resolution (look below the browser list). Just a warning, though: Only check the browsers you want to check, or it will take FOREVER.
