Now Opera doesn't understand?

    Spooky, "ACID" or "ACID2" is not necessarily a standardized test fyi... It's a wasp project not so much a w3c project spec. Just because a browser can pass or come close to rendering the acid test, doesn't necessarily mean it supports standards correctly. It just means it can pass outshine all the old rendering flaws.

    The ACID/2 test is not to be taken literally. It was designed to see how browsers handle CSS failure.

    He was whining about CSS. The ACID2 standard measures CSS standard compliance/implementation. Opera surpases Firefox in this regard. Overall, Firefox supports more w3c standards (though Opera 9.0 is catching up with them) like XSLT and other XML transformation rubbish that should be on the server side instead of a browser. Having to compete to implement server side stuff takes away resources from CSS, XHTML, and other client side technologies. But this is another can of worms.

    In college I used to listen to a band called "Acid Test".

    Are they good? It sounds like a name for a trash metal band.

    "I liked them at the time, but I bet they sucked. "

    The first 20 years of my life, summed up into one sentence.

    Exhibit A: I own two Creed albums, and I'm jewish.

    Sppoky, you are a drooling retard.

    See? That was easy, to bitch to someone not knowing them, I have no proof that you are aforementioned drooling and/or metally challenged, but still I was able to say it.

    So maybe you should take that rake out of your ass and listen to me when I say:

    "True, Opera supports grander number of standards than FF, but FF definedly is more fine tuned on the standards it supports. Opera just doesn't seem to present the content correctly."

    And if you still don't understand what I'm about, then you might want to think how much meaning your precious ACID test has to do with anything in the standards compliant scene. Sure it represents many different standards but does it mean a proverbial "flying fuck" when it comes to TRUE compliance?

    Example: a car has a top speed of 300mph, how much it helps you in everyday driving when most of the roads have speedlimits.

    Immature? I'm a professional web developer and mr. spook comes here to "Insulting Opera for your weaknesses in design knowledge" and I'm immature? Spooky, I suggest that you lay off the guilt before you know the person you are blaming thoroughly, I have been learning and actually teching standards compliant design and development for couple of years now, so believe me, when I see a flaw, it is a flaw. So you might want to consider your stance on your suggested position of me "blaming my weakness on software" before you make yout final conclusion boy.
