netscape 4.73 and 6.2 at the same time

Hi Gang!

I'm trying to design a website from the O'Reilly books.  They warn 
about browser incompatability so I want to make sure my pages render 
properly on various browsers.  I now (still! ) use netscape 4.73 and 
konqueror and clearly see differences.  So I'd like to also run 
netscape 6.2 to be able to check compatability across old and new 
netscape.  
If I rpm netscape in, it will (I assume) replace all of the current 
/opt/netscape directory along with /usr/bin/netscape.  Does anybody 
know how I might load and label 4.73 and 6.2 as two different versions 
and run them separately or is this a potential disaster?  For example, 
I suppose I would have to modify the script /usr/bin/netscape to look 
in the right places.

Thanks in advance!
