Opera 9 Passes the Acid2

The team of developers making the Opera Web Browser can (at least for now) rest easy on the fact that their product supports modern web standards to a superior degree. Opera 9 RC has had it nailed down for some time, but this is their first public Opera release passing the Acid2. As of this writing it is 9.0 beta.

This bold claim is verifiable by anyone using said browser. All you have to do is take the Acid2 Test. If you go to this page using any browser except KHTML-based Safari 2 or Opera 9, you will most likely see a distorted mess of colors. These browsers, as much as you love or hate them, do not support what the WaSP has determined to be the most needed and useful functionality of HTML 4 and CSS 2.

If you are interested in seeing your choice browser pass the Acid2 test, I suggest notifying the development team of the browser you use
