Safari to act like Internet Explorer to go on site

You can use Safari to trick sites into thinking it's IE by enabling the Develop menu (can't remember what I used to do that, but Google should help there). However, if the site in question really needs IE because it uses ActiveX controls and/or other IE proprietary non-standard bits that won't help. In that case she may really need IE for real.

 

the develop menu is enable in the safari preferences and then under advanced there is check box to enable it. be aware though that this does not enable some kind of ie's trident engine, it is just a trick. most websites will not render correctly.

 

It won't work. Whatever site or enterprise suite your friend uses almost certainly requires ActiveX.
