There have been a number of tools developed to make it easier for our web designers to design a website; from conception of ideas, to delivery of the final design. Today, a number of new tools were developed to further assist web designers in designing a website. One popular tool was developed by Adobe which is used to enhance a website’s accessibility in all types of popular web browsers. This is Adobe BrowserLab.
Adobe BrowserLab is a new addition to the Adobe CS Live Collection which was developed to assist web designers to test and compare their website with different popular web browsers, including Firefox, Internet Explorer, Chrome, and Safari. This application allows them to cross check their website’s appearance from different browsers either side-by-side or in an onion skin view.
According to our Web Design Philippines Insider, Adobe BrowserLab also supports different versions of different browsers, from Firefox 3.0 of OS X and Windows to Internet Explorer 6. This allows a more in-depth look at their website’s accessibility and usability in different browsers of different versions.
Another feature of using Adobe BrowserLab is its full integration with Dreamweaver CS5, which allowed users to test their website in different states of interactive pages. According to our Web Design Philippines Insider, Its full integration also allows users to launch Adobe BrowserLab directly from Dreamweaver CS5.
In a nutshell, here is what Adobe BrowserLab can do:
- Allows users to easily cross check their website’s appearance from different browsers.
- Allows users to view differences from one browser to the other through side-by-side view or through onion skin view.
- Supports all types of browsers currently used today.
- Also supports older versions of browsers such as Firefox 3 and Internet Explorer 6.
- Allows web designers and developers to test their website with different browsers with any operating systems, such as by testing their website in IE by using Mac OS.
- Allows cost cutting by replacing the use of different testing applications and software.
- Full integration with Dreamweaver CS5, allowing web designers to test different states of interactive pages.
- Full intergration with Dreamweaver CS5 also allows users to launch Adobe BrowserLab through Dreamweaver CS5.
- Being an online service, Adobe BrowserLab requires no maintenance, meaning all upgrades are made automatically to assure all functions are up-to-date.
