Re: [WSG] Konquerer becomes the 2nd browser to pass Acid2

2005-12-01 Thread Alan Trick
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.

Yep. And iCab 3 developer builds reportedly support it too.

Konqueror on Win32 isn't entirely unthinkable. The rest?

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.

Hope a Windows browser manages that soon... :(

[WSG] Konquerer becomes the 2nd browser to pass Acid2

2005-11-30 Thread James Ellis
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
