Hi Lisa, and welcome to the group.

If you're interested in testing your web server stuff from different
browsers, there are several different ways to do that in either
Linux or Windows.

1. Run Apache on Windows and test on IE, Mozilla, Netscape, Opera, etc
2. Run Apache on Linux and test using Netscape, Mozilla, and IE (using
   Codeweavers Office [not free]).
3. Run Linux under Windows using VMWare and test that way. (Note: VMWare
   is not free)
4. Run Windows under Linux using VMWare and test that way.

There's probably others, but that'll do for a start. :-)
