WebKit passed Acid3 fully for the first time on Friday. So it's 100 subtests of 100 passed now. Opera 9.60 Beta scored 85.

Go Firefox 3!

I would personally prefer IE8’s released delayed for personal reasons: my university requires students to [re-]register their computers in order to have internet access for the semester, but students need to use the latest version of Internet Explorer. It’s just one extra hassle that I don’t like putting up with.

I think all of the tests fail in at least one of the other browsers, Safari, Opera or Firefox. The tests really aren’t aimed at any version of IE, which would be too easy. With one exception: he said he wrote one specifically to make sure that IE passes at least one of the tests, probably just to test the tests.

Haha, this just rubs it in IE’s face more. “Hey, you did it, but we’re already working on the next bit!”

Curiously, how does someone make these tests if there is no browser to check if it works? Must be a hell of a lot of hard work.
