Opera 9.0 Fully Passes ACID2 Test

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the both-users-celebrate dept.

Rytis writes "Opera has just become the second browser after Safari to be able to pass completely the famous ACID2 test. Mark Wilton-Jones is running a little article on the history of the Opera and ACID tests. Of course, it includes a screenshot of Opera 9 showing the nice happy face saying "Hello world!"."

    RTFA? This is Slashdot. Why are you suggesting I RTFA before mindlessly posting a comment like that?

    Considering it's from Microsoft (you said Exchange web interface, right?), I'm sure Microsoft implemented a slew of hacks to have Firefox compliance (Microsoft is well known for improper web developing practices, to put it lightly).
     
    I would not doubt Microsoft employs people, who's only job is to make sure their web based products DON'T work with anything except IE. Lets not forget Front Page generates broken code, which IE knows how to render correctly. I've never seen anything except IE work with the crappy Exchange Web Interface.

    Who knows and who cares? Opera does display it how it is supposed to.
