 * I’m new to web development. When testing wordpress sites in other browsers, what
   should I be looking for? Making sure links work? Videos are loading right? Anything
   else?

 * There is a long list actually…..
 * Cross Browser: Start with the links below (all HTML/CSS can be search a w3schools
   if you need to see if a browser supports a particular tag/CSS attribute…. browse
   through it a moment and you’ll see why IE is the devil….

 * The short answer to your question: links should work just fine unless you add
   some really esoteric html tag and start rewinding to very old IE versions. But
   how things are displayed can change very significantly. It’s more likely images
   will look bad, or formats will get wonky, or effects that look cool here won’t
   look cool there, or the dimensions will go to hell, etc.
