There is no browser that is 100% W3C compliant, mainly because it depends on which standard you quote. Opera and Safari pass the ACID test for CSS (IIRC), but not necessarily for HTML and DOM/Javascript.
of the vendors wants that crap to run so that his app which is browser based can function. If the o/p of his app is w3c compliant FF / Konqueror / lynx should work properly and he shouldnt care what
Turns out that the vendor has never tested his stuff on anything other than IE6 "because nobody asked for it". Then quickly proceeds to read the M$ incantations about security, standards, costs, support etc all of which i painstakingly corrected. Faced with the prospect of admitting to incompetently advising clients they have agreed to test with FF / Moz and take corrective action where ever neccessary, subject to being given some time whenever things dont pan out as planned. The outcome was such imo cause i insisted on a point by point reply and also cause this vendor is known for being a very ethical company.
