The Acid2 Browser Test
Digg recently had a story on the front page about the latest build of Opera passing the Acid2 Test. I decided to verify this for myself, as well as check how Firefox and Internet Explorer did.
For those who don't know, the Acid2 Test tests how well web browsers conform to certain standards. If the browser passes, the page should like like a smiley face. Otherwise, it will look bad. How bad depends on how well the browser conforms to the tested standards.
Opera Build 8265 (Looks great!)
Firefox 1.5.01 (Disappointed)
Internet Explorer 6.0.2900.2180 (Looks HORRIBLE)
On the bright side, I have heard that the IE 7.0 beta passes the test and I am sure that Firefox won't be far behind.

I just tried it in IE 7 beta and it doens't pass. I actually think it looks better in IE 6.
