Development and Testing

In no particular order, I’ve listed the hardware and software used in developing the code for this book. For the most part, everything has been tested for a Windows environment, but Unix and Mac users should encounter few, if any, problems.

Hardware: IBM ThinkPad 55/P75/16M, Compaq Presario/P233/100M, IBM Aptiva C23/P120/128M, DELL OptiPlex/P2-266/128M, Sun SPARC 20

Operating Systems: Win95, WinNT Workstation 4.0, WinNT Server 4.0, Solaris 2.5

Browsers: Netscape Navigator 3.0, 3.04 Gold, 4.0, 4.04, 4.07, 4.08, 4.5; Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.0, 3.02, 4.0, 4.01, 5.00

Resolutions: 640 x 480, 800 x 600, 1024 x 768, 1152 x 900, 1280 x 1024

Of course, not every application was tested under all these conditions. However, I tried to code defensively enough so that the vast majority of user environments would be accommodated.
