Same for Firefox (obviously) but didn't get anything first time round with NoScript enabled, couldn't run the test ;D

Good lord IE8 is so far behind, no wonder they are touting IE9 already, which won't work with XP anyway ;D

Sorry I forgot to mention enabling NS in FF for the test. :-[

MS is so busy patching the holes in IE8 that they don't have time
to bring it up to 2010 standards. ;D

The test is pointless because almost nobody is actually using HTML5 anyway.

But not real bad either :)

Safari might land a good score if someone tried it.

Did either of you two stop and think why all these browsers developers are bothering to make their browsers HTML5 compliant?

IE9 Platform Preview 3 Marches to the Standards Beat
posted by Kroc Camen on Sat 26th Jun 2010 10:48 UTC

Microsoft have released IE9 Platform Preview 3, an application that gives developers access to the IE9 rendering engine (it's not a full browser). In this update they have added hardware accelerated HTML5 Video, Canvas, Fonts (using WOFF) and big improvements in JavaScript with ES5, DOM Traversal, L2 and L3 events and 83/100 Acid3 score. It sits between Firefox and Chrome 6 on JavaScript speed, but outperforms every browser in real tests.

That I believe is the whole point of FWFs comment, "think why all these browsers developers are bothering to make their browsers HTML5 compliant."

Its called preparation for new standards compliance and as such the test shows users what browsers support the new HTML5 standard as and when it is more readily used. So as such hardly a pointless test, the point FWF was I believe making.

Exactly. When browsers are reasonably compliant, web developers will start to use HTML5.

The word standard means something in common usage and employed by the majority. HTML5 is not a standard yet, it is a wish. Having said that, IE9 already has incorporated most of the elements of it and is promising to be the most "standards compliant" browser when it is released, even if the "standards" are not actually standard yet.
