with one comment

Since when did “loose” became synonym with “lose”?

Pretty amazing stuff, but Opera 9beta for GNU/Linux is almost 100% compatible with the Acid Test. In a nutshell, the Acid Test is a bunch of mangled html/CSS/JavaScript that is supposed to push any browser’s support of those to the limit. So far, most browsers support it only partially, but with growing compatibly. The concept is that the more standard compliant your browser is, the less work is needed for a developer to make sure his site works with all browsers. Nice to see that Opera is still working towards that 100% standard compliance.
