Cross-browser testing

Browser & platform testing

Studio Rhoad works to make web sites as technically compatible and visually similar as possible for all browsers, platforms, and screen resolutions. Some differences are inevitable, but site design will be optimized to achieve as much of a consistent look as possible. Web site design is necessarily fluid and user overrides often change the appearance of web pages.
