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.

      Nope - IE does not need at crack to work. Not even a NOCD patch... ;-)

    Acid? I'd have thought shrooms were more IE's style.

    Look, if he was alive today, (AND HE IS NOT) then Hitler and Nazis would have defintely loved IE8 and Vista.

    I see them more as Ubuntu users because of all the brown, but you make an interesting point.
