I searching the Internet for an Page or an Book that collects the characteristics (Bugs/Features) of common Browsers. I get a lot of Information from several sites.. but is there some place for webdesigner that focusses on that issue?

At the moment i am using Grails if that is an needed factor to answer my question.

The only place I know is this excellent guide on Browser security. It also has a comparison of various browser features. Go through the 1 & 2 parts at least.

I think a better approach for you should be to:

  • review standards supported by various browser
  • testing your app on browser and making appropriate changes

i already test my apps on different Browsers. I use alot Conditional Comments. But it is a lot of trial and error. I always find an solution by google around or fixing it by myself. From my point of view a lot of people fixing such issues every day. So there is colletion? :-)

I don't think there is such a collection. Think of it. If one were to write such a note, describing how the different HTML tags are to be rendered will itself run into 1000s of pages. Leave alone script, css, media...I think browser testing is your best bet.

quirksmode.org is pretty good for listing browser bugs and compatibility.

Sitepoint's reference section is also pretty good.
