Can anyone tell me if it is possible to have more than one version of Internet Explorer on my pc?

I am experimenting with style sheets & presently using IE6. I know there are workarounds for IE5 display problems but at the moment I can't check changes as they're made.

Any suggestions?

Did you hear anything except IE? It's not the only one existing in this world...

If you want to experiment with CSS you should of course see the result in different environments like N6 and Opera.
Instead of spending your time on trying to install 2 versions of IE get other new browsers! The last one - Opera - is the best choice, I use it for more that 2 years and can say that it leaves IE far behind.
 
starway,

that's only true for it's support of CSS. that's what I at least use opera for, to find out how CSS should look in the browser.

BobbaFet Everyone has a right to my opinion.

starway,
I agree with you on the point that IE is not the only browser in the world etc, but a web developer should be able to test the site in as many browsers as possible, including the most used ones by the general public (even if they are not the best browsers in our professional opinion).
p.s. Have to agree with you on Opera lol
