How would you easily transition from IE6 to IE8?

1 pointsaskar15y ago1 comments

I've heard enough bad mouthing about IE6 and I agree to it 100%. I don't use it mainstream at all but the reality is a considerable portion of the corporate world is still stuck with IE6. Wanted to see how one can transition from IE6 to IE8 without too much overhead?

Cross browser can be done on a single machine because it let you install all those browsers but Windows won't let you install IE6 and IE8 side-by-side. Wondering how one can deal with the migration as easy as possible.

Any tips?

You might get better responses on a board like ServerFault.com - while there are a lot of tech people here, I doubt that many are interested in Windows desktop migration strategies :-)

I do not understand that sentence, it seems contradictory.
