Opera 9.0 Fully Passes ACID2 Test
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!"."
Hallo world!
I got here first.
I have no life.
KTHXBAI!
Cool, but you know I'm happy with Firefox..
Come as you are, do what you must, be who you will.
My website, Tub Monkey, mostly looks right in Safari and Opera 9 but has a lingering bug I've yet to figure out that neither centers the main page body in the expected way as Firefox and even IE does. From reading the CSS2 spec I'm pretty sure I'm doing it right by using auto margins so I'm not sure why it doesn't work. I've asked in Safari and Opera forums for help but have never had any suggestions and I've had no feedback from submiting the site as having a browser bug to the browser makers.
Any ideas?
At what price learning? At what cost wisdom? The price is a man's peace of mind, and the cost is his life.
Was it Chuck Norris?
I believe you mean your manufacturer still doesn't support linux.
That's correct. However, I am locked into my manufacturer because in order to switch to another manufacturer, I would have to re-buy hardware.
Why then don't you expect your manufacturer to provide the linux drivers too.
I didn't expect Linux drivers when I asked for the scanner as a birthday present because at that time, I had no clear intention of switching to Linux.
I know my Samsung AIO came with drivers for Windows and Linux on the CD. That's why I supportted them with my cash.
While inside a Best Buy store, how would I know what peripherals come with Linux drivers? Zero boxes have a plump penguin on them. Printing out the hardware compatibility list and carrying it into the store doesn't work if (for example) I seek a compatible printer.
And Jack Thompson says that GTA is the video game version of the devil incarnate. Jesus Christ, somebody call a fucking priest. That game needs an exorcism.
I presume Mozilla's is as well. I wrote a script for work that does a search (on an array created with js) and generates DOM objects (the search results). In Opera, it displays the "searching" animation as it should and lets me do other stuff, and only takes a few seconds. In FF, the search animation is NOT displayed and the browser is locked up for at least twice as long as Opera takes to do the search. The code is 100% compliant in regards to XHTML, CSS and JavaScript.
Um.. Opera9 is in beta right now. Those are rendering bugs. I was replying to the guys comment about Javascript and CSS support lacking, which is not true.
