Hi,
I just seen image on coderanch as below:-


As user, i doesn’t understand why it necessary to take Acid test for browser...specially IE versions...
I used Mozilla Firefox from many years...
I think its developers headache to make their browser to pass all the major test...
Important thing is for security rather than look & feel as per my thoughts.
What other think about it?

If security is your primary concern and you don't care much for look and feel. Then I have the very browser for you: Lynx

You're obviously not a web developer fi you don't think that it's important for browsers to behave consistently given the same standard-compliant code base.
