IE 5.5 Beats IE6 and IE7 On Acid 3

Posted by kdawson on from the acid-reflux dept.

Steven Noonan sends us to a page where he is collecting and updating results for various browsers on the newly released Acid 3 test. No browser yet scores 100 on this test. (We discussed Acid 3 when it came out.) He writes, "It's not surprising that Internet Explorer is losing to every other modern browser, but how did IE 5.5 beat IE 6.0 and 7.0?" All of the IE versions score below 20 on Acid 3.

    My undergrad (and I think this is the way with most UK institutions) graded:

    70+ First Class
    60+ Upper Second
    50+ Lower Second
    40+ Third
    30+ Pass
    29- Fail

    But then again, 10% of people got firsts, so I guess it's a little harder than the US (or we're stupider... nah)
