Firefox 3 Beta 1 Passes the Acid 2 Test!
I was only moderately excited for the new Firefox beta since my current version of Firefox 2 is fairly customized and runs great.
However, as I was reading about the updates to Firefox 3, CSS rendering was supposed to be improved. I decided it was time to have another look at the Acid 2 test. It’s a test to see if the CSS rendering of the browser is standards complaint. Firefox 2 was pretty good, but not perfect. Well, Firefox 3 fixes all of that. Here’s the screenshot I took to prove it.
Congratulations to Mozilla for fixing the last remaining significant argument against Firefox! As a designer, I’m very happy.

I take that back it’s the test that’s not working at the minute.
