One of the hardest things when developing and using linux is not being able to test on IE browsers. In the past I had to just go on a backup PC where I have winxp installed and even that can be a hassle at times. Especially if that PC is turned OFF. Anywho a few days ago I was installing fedora core 6 and stumbled across something while browsing FC6 tips on google.

A project called IEs4linux. Project is developed by Sérgio Luís Lopes. I found not only can we use IE6 on linux we can also test IE5 and IE5.5 which I couldn’t even do when on my winxp.

For those that do a little design with their web development and using a linux OS this might be a very useful tool. You can download the package here. The install was nice and easy.
