Acid3

Acid3 is the latest test to see how different web browsers follow web standards as defined by the W3C.

Below is information of the Acid3 renders for the four most popular browsers and rendering engines. No browser has crashed while attempting the test.

Note 1: All Browsers except for Internet Explorer 7 now pass the Acid2 test.

Note 2: In my testing Mobile Safari (eventually) gets 72/100 with software version 2.0.

Note 3: All builds must be publicly available to be included.

Note a development build of Opera has been released that passes Acid3 (and was released on Friday 28th March 2008, one day after Webkit), however it is really an internal build, and isn’t cross platform yet, so I’m not counting it as a pass.
