The Web Standards Project has released the latest version of it’s acid test for browser rendering, surprisingly called the ACID3 Test.

Acid3 goes beyond the CSS tests implemented by Acid2 and tests a browser’s DOM Scripting capability, as well as continuing to probe visual rendering of CSS, SVG and webfonts.

The test itself can be found here along with the reference rendering.

The ideal score is obviously for your browser to score 100/100 and have the test rendering look exactly like the reference rendering, suffice to say there are no mainstream browsers out there that pass completely yet. Internet Exploder fails this test in a rather grand fashion, but then that is now the norm for any Microsoft browser and a web standards test.
