older internet explorer

Hi guys,

I’d like to do some testing in Internet Explorer 5.5. Is it possible to install it (or even older versions for that matter) without overriding version 6 on my current XP OS?

Can anyone point me somewhere where for this type of information?

Thanks!

@ajimenezauthorOct 08.2004 — We found ourselves a machine with win98 that still had IE 5.5 so I was able to use that. We encountered a problem with our stylesheets for our site and 5.5 seemed to be the cause of it. I posted the details over in the CSS forum about this problem.

But thank you for the references. They're definitely helpful. At some point I'll try and install 5.5 on my machine because that other one is way too slow ?

Success!
