Test your browser with this page. Here is the reference. The closest the browser properly render this smiley, the closest it is for W3C standard. So far, among the browser I used (Opera, Konqueror and Firefox), Firefox is the best.

I went there with Firefox and it was TERRIBLE. It was a mutant smiley from OUTER SPACE. Not even recognizable. What does that say about my Firefox browser. I usually don't have many issues with it, but it does make me wonder.

Yeah I also got a load of junk with firefox.
Although I was in Windows at the time - perhaps its caught some nasty IE bug?
Looking at the page in IE - half the page was a giant red block with a bit of yellow in it and the word ERROR. :|
Out of intrest what exactly does this test prove anyway?

FC3 with Firefox messed up considerable on the acidtest
FC3 running Dillo was a total disaster for compliance.
guess my browsers are setup not to allow just anything---just as I want them to do.

There are 10 kinds of people in the world. Those who understand binary and those who don't.

That is exactly what I got
From FF in FC4
I'm about to cry. What can be done to improve FF?
Are you sure this isn't for IE compliance?

It's to test css2 compliance... (so certainly NOT for M$IE) Originally Posted by tejas

I've just looked at it with
Windows XP - MSIE 6.0.29, Opera 7.54, Firefox 1, Netscape Navigator 7.2, WebTV Viewer
Mac OSX - MSIE 5.2, Netscape Navigator 7.2 and Safari 1.0.3
FC5 Linux - Konqueror 3.4.1, Firefox 1.0.4 and Linux Epiphany 1.7.1
Not one of them renders it properly.

hehe i don't need a test to tell me that IE is crappy. If only browsers respected some sort of standard(right), site developers wouldn't have to jump through hoops to try and please everyone.

I've now got two really simple pages with the images on them - http://brisray.com/test/css2/gary.htm and http://brisray.com/test/css2/acid.htm
Some interesting effects. It looks like all the browsers have a way to go before they are completely compliant - some more than others. Until they are it looks like web developers have to ...
a) "dumb down" their sites
b) add a lot of code to cope with the differences
c) target individual browsers

If no browser can render it exactly, then who sets these standards?
How do we know what that picture is 'supposed' to look like?
