How can I install Internet explorer on Ubuntu? [closed]

I need to test my website for internet explorer compatibility. I am using Ubuntu 13.04. I have tried using wine but its not running (Wine asks me for installation steps but not installs it, it does not give any error too.)

Is there any other simple way to install it on Ubuntu 13.04?

sudo wget http://deb.playonlinux.com/playonlinux_precise.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/playonlinux.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install playonlinux

Now Wine will get automatically updated,
