DAOMU－盗墓笔记漫画版宣传视频 （demo）

For the past few years it seems like Microsoft’s Internet Explorer has let web standards and competing browsers pass it by.  Internet users with even a hint of technical-savvy were more likely to have tried, and preferred, an alternative to IE.  It wouldn’t be a such an issue if Microsoft didn’t have over 50% of the world’s browser market share.  This fact has given web developers countless headaches when they face browser compatibility issues working with new web standards like SVG, CSS3, and HTML5.  But the dawn is finally coming for IE users and web developers that have been putting up with Microsoft’s browsing dark ages.   At the MIX 10 conference today, Microsoft announced the release of a IE9 developer preview.  Microsoft’s new browser will add support for the latest web technologies including SVG and HTML5.  The company also announced that they would become a committer for the jQuery project.

The current software is just a framework right now, and it’s in such an early stage that it doesn’t even have a back button yet, but more preview versions will arrive in eight week intervals.  The preview of IE9 showcases new support for SVG 1.1 imagery inline, CSS3, and of course HTML5.  It also has an Acid3 score of 55 currently and its CSS3 Selectors all pass the Selector test.  Microsoft also showed its commitment to developing industry standard test suites by submitting over 100 additional HTML5, CSS3, DOM, and SVG tests to the W3C.

Following in the footsteps of Chrome’s V8, Opera’s Carakan, and Firefox’s SpiderMonkey, IE9 has a creatively-named JavaScript powerhouse of its own.  The “Chakra” JS engine in the IE9 developer preview was tested against against competitors using the WebKit SunSpider JavaScript benchmark (see results below).  I’m sure we’ll see some benchmarks from other sources very soon.
