Opera passes two out of three Acid 3 tests in public build

, , , ...

We've just released a public build of our testing and development build that shows Opera passing 100/100 in the DOM tests. It also has pixel perfect rendering. The final test which has to be passed is the performance test. This puts Safari and Opera neck and neck in the race to be the first browser to pass Acid 3. I'd like to congratulate the Core Opera team for all the work they've done to pass the first two tests so quickly, and the WebKit team for making this a fun race so far. Both engines getting this far means that we both support important CSS3 properties like HSLA color model and Web Fonts, and pushes support for SVG forward. I'm looking forward to when Gecko and the new IE engine get this far.

Opera on Acid

, , , ...

We've just released information that Opera has overtaken Safari in its Acid3 score. The current score is now 98%, to Safari's 96%. I'd not be surprised if it improves further in the near future. This work is being carried out in a post Core-2.1 build, that most likely wont be included in Kestrel. Check out Anne VK's blog, or CSS3.info for some more information as it comes in.

Update: Working into the night, our core developers have fixed the final 2%, making Opera the first browser to reach 100% in the DOM tests. The test hasn't been passed yet as there are some rendering issues, and it hasn't been released in a public build yet. That experimental build should be released on Opera Labs in the near future.
