Topic awaiting preservation: the Acid2 test

The Acid2 test ( cf IE7 and the web standards ) is online since few days now. And Safari seems to be on the right track to pass it. I've tested it in Internet Explorer 6.0, Opera 7.54 and FireFox 1.0.1 ( sorry that's the only browsers I have at work ) and the quality of rendering is in the same order, but rather low.

FF 1.0.3 passed the Test!

I got the Hello World in blue and the yellow smily face, that displayed correctly.

I don't know what you're smoking, but no browser has yet passed the test.

FWIW Google fails the Acid2 test

It dont render correctly in FF 1.0.3 for me, dont know why it wouldnt for me and it did for WebShaman

Here at Last

It didn't for WebShaman. His peace pipe was overloaded when he wrote the post above.

Loaded my own peace-pipe pretty heavily and it still looked like a mess on FF_1.0.3 to me...

Didn't Safari2.0 pass the test? I'd run it through but I'm lazy right now.

FF_1.0.4 fails equally.

It's just security fixes - the 2nd digit is for large updates.

I doubt Safari 2.0 passes the test. Dave HYATT made Safari (custom build) pass the Acid2 test, but the 2.0 version was in the development long before the test was even online. But Safari 2.1will certainly contains the CSS fixes Dave HYATT made.

Won't the evolving requirements of web developers always make demands that necessitate appropriate improvements to the test that ultimately ensure no browser will ever (and always) pass the test unadulterated?
