Re: [WSG] Konquerer becomes the 2nd browser to pass Acid2
While I share you feellings, I also understand why Acid2 wasn't high on the list of the Mozilla folks. The test itself isn't the be all and end all of stadards. I personally think that building SVG support into firefox was a much more important goal and I can't wait till Konqi and Safari support it as well.

Well, Mozilla tends to have quite long development cycles, and they just ended one. Chris Wilson stated on IEBlog that IE7 will not pass Acid2 when shipping, which would mean Acid2 in iew is deferred to yet future releases. Opera is close already, only having problems with the eyes part. So my bet would be on Opera being the first Windows browser to pass it. -- David "liorean" Andersson http://liorean.web-graphics.com/> ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help **

[WSG] Konquerer becomes the 2nd browser to pass Acid2
Hi all Just read this via KDE dot news (http://dot.kde.org/1133270759/) "Konqueror is the second major web browser to pass the Acid2 CSS test, ahead of Firefox and Internet Explorer" http://www.kde.org/announcements/visualguide-3.5.php This was done in June 2005 but was only ported to a stable branch released today. Bravo Konqi and a good day for better standards support. Both Konq and Safari share a similar codebase (KHTML : http://khtml.info ). Cheers James
