Acid2: One year later

Acid2 smiley face
The Acid2 test for browser compliance to the W3C recommendations for web standards, namely: CSS, XHTML & PNG is now one year old. Happy Birthday.

This test was put together by the Web Standards Project aka WaSP (who by the way is sporting a fancy new page design these days). Web browsers should be able to display the smiley face correctly, as it’s simply markup and one .png image for the eyes. The markup is purposely full of many known to be buggily displayed (if supported at all) CSS1 & CSS2 features. The markup along with explanations is available.

Give your favorite (or not so favorite) browser a whirl at the Acid2 test.

    I think the only release browser that passes thus far is Safari, although we should see Opera get there in the next release.
