Firefox and Opera Fail the Acid2 Test

Posted by timothy on from the raising-the-bar dept.

naylor83 writes "Four weeks ago, Opera's CTO Håkan Lie put forward the Acid2 challenge to the IE developers at Microsoft. The Web Standards Project has now silently published the promised browser test. Somewhat surprisingly, both Opera and Firefox fail to correctly render the test page. Obviously though, they're no where near as lousy as Internet Explorer. More screenshots are available at my blog, as well as at other people's."

    They deliberately made errors which the browsers should cope with according to the specs.
