KHTML 3.5.6 is the most CSS3-compliant of all

The latest (3.5.6) release of the KHTML rendering engine passes all of the tests in the CSS selector testsuite - making the Konqueror 3.5.6 browser the most CSS3-compatible of all.

Also in the latest release is the implementation of text-overflow: ellipsis. It really is a shame that only a tiny proportion of web users have access to this excellent browser.

Update: I wrote a follow-up to this post, on how to use Konqueror without installing Linux. See the comments for even more methods.

    Hey, KHTML is a good rendering engine, especially since Apple has taken the initiative to improve it as Webkit (the use of Objective-C, however, is a bit iffy). The big problem with Konqueror, IMHO, is the crowded interface. But it definitely deserves to be respected, at least as much as Opera (another browser that I think has a too-crowded interface).
