    <p>If you're looking for a serious answer:</p> <p>The best way to test something with IE7 for Windows is to use IE7 for Windows. Just because you have a Mac doesn't mean you can't do that. You can run Windows through BootCamp. Or buy a used $99 Windows box and borrow the Mac's keyboard/mouse/etc. Of course it's much more convenient, and almost certainly good enough, to run Windows in a VM under OS X via Parallels, VMware, etc. Wine will mostly work, but it can be fiddly to configure, and may crash and/or have visual glitches that don't happen with real Windows; if you really want to get serious about that you may want to look at Crossover.</p> <p>But the next best way to test IE7 for Windows is actually Opera. Of course in the case of bugs and quirks that are still present in later versions of IE, they'll do a perfect job of emulating IE7, but for bugs that were fixed, that's not a particularly important focus. Opera, on the other hand, works hard to be able to emulate the quirks of all of the important browsers. Make sure to enable IE quirks mode, and set the user agent to pretend to be IE7 for Windows, and you should be golden.</p> <p>But for the question you actually asked, there is no blanket answer to this that could possibly be correct. There are many reasons it may not make sense to download Internet Explorer onto a Mac, and also many reasons why it might.</p> <ul> <li>You can't run IE for Mac on any modern Mac. <ul> <li>If you have an ancient Mac, and it's running 10.2 or 10.3 rather than 10.4, it already has IE (and if you want to reinstall it, it's part of the OS X install), so there's no reason to download IE.</li> <li>You also can't legally download IE for Mac from anywhere anymore (except as part of old versions of OS X).</li> <li>And IE for Mac is actually far less like IE7 for Windows than any modern browser is.</li> </ul></li> <li>You can't run IE for Windows (or Pocket IE for Windows Mobile) on Mac OS X. <ul> <li>But you can run it under wine.</li> <li>And you can run it in a virtual machine running Windows. <ul> <li>Except that Windows comes with Internet Explorer, so there's no reason to download it.</li> <li>Unless your Windows comes with an older version and you want to update it.</li> </ul></li> <li>And a Mac can run Windows instead of OS X if you want (e.g., via BootCamp). <ul> <li>Same caveats as with a VM.</li> </ul></li> <li>And there may be other reasons to download it other than running it. <ul> <li>If your Mac has access to a fast internet connection and your Windows box doesn't, you might want to download the installer on the Mac to copy it locally to Windows.</li> <li>Sometimes you just want to use up internet bandwidth.</li> <li>Maybe you're testing your download speeds.</li> <li>Maybe you're about to dump your boyfriend, and first you want to run him $300 over his monthly bandwidth limits.</li> <li>Someone at Microsoft might find it entertaining when they notice in the logs that you've downloaded IE on a Mac, and it's always nice to bring a smile to a stranger's face.</li> </ul></li> </ul></li> </ul>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
