It is very important to do a cross-browser compatibility check on our web design nearly anytime internal structures are updated. Most theme developer may not specify compatibility of themes across browser on documentation. When a template is compatible with the browser we use regularly, it is naive to conclude it will also fit in exactly every other available browsers.

It may be shocking to realize this is not so. For the fact that a web design or an update fits in a particular browser say Firefox does not guarantee it compatibility in other browsers say Google chrome.

The reason is in the response difference of CSS code (cascading style sheets) across browsers. And this code is mostly used by theme developers in it’s configuration and styling that allows for great look and feel of themes.

To gain competitive edge in online business marketing, we must find a way to synchronize our theme to have precise blog design presentation across browser. Clients and prospective customers are exposed to different browsers and they are not oblige or restricted to the browser that best fit our theme.

This makes it imperative to ensure we find a way in making our site accessible and presented ‘as it should be’ to the generality of our customer base. Probably very soon this might not be a major concern when web browser code is standardized against common front and web developers are able to flow with the unified code.

However, there are numerous online resources and tools that can help check this compatibility given us the exact picture of how they look on different browsers.
