Test jQuery & JavaScript on IE6

What is the best way to test my web app on IE6. Obviously I have IE8 installed on my 开发者_开发百科machine, I've tought about using a Virtual Machine, are there any other options?.

I wan't to make sure my jQuery and JavaScript code functions properly....

The other options are:

• Use a non-virtual machine (inefficient)
• Use one of the hacks to install multiple versions of IE side-by-side (unreliable, especially when it comes to JS testing).

A virtual machine is the right way to go.

Check out IETester:

My suggestion would be: use IETester. Also see this topic for more suggestions: Internet Explorer 6 and Internet Explorer 7 on same computer for debugging

you could use IE tester.

IETester allows you to try IEs 5.5, 6, 7, and 8 in one program, with very few limitations.

IE Collection is another option for you. I have only been using it for about a week, and the IE6 menu interface is a bit buggy, but so far JavaScript and CSS behave consistently with my other PC which has IE6 on it. It will let you install several older (pre-6.0) versions as well.
