Acid2 Test In Safari
By Adrian Sutton
So apparently Safari now passes the Acid 2 test (or at least the CVS version does). Excellent work. What’s more impressive though is that the patches needed are all available so the KHTML developers should be able to integrate the fixes themselves reasonably quickly. I have however heard reports that the KHTML team refused to accept a large amount of Apple’s patches for various reasons so the code bases may be far enough diverged now that merging is problematic – anyone know for sure?
I wonder how the Mozilla team are progressing? Hey Scoble (or other suitably connected and/or informed people), are the IE 7 team working on Acid 2 support? How far along are they? Anyone with Opera connections know how they’re going with Acid 2 (weren’t they a driving force behind writing it?)?
Hopefully it won’t be too long before web developers can create ridiculously convoluted code to paint happy faces and have it work in all browsers!
