Firefox and Opera Fail the Acid2 Test

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."

So nothing can display it correctly?

Right. So none of the browsers tested can display the test page correctly? And they're the best, most compliant browsers available?

And they've had how long to get it right?

In that case, it would seem to me that it is the standard that is broken, if it's really that difficult to render a page with a cascading style sheet.

What browser did they use?

Just out of curiosity...what browser did they use to get the successful reference rendering? I'm presuming there's one that successfully renders, otherwise, how do they know their test code is valid? I've clicked around but don't know what they used to generate that png.
