Layout 1.9.1 Update

  • 1.9.1 Layout Bugs

  • Acid3: Roc or dbaron, status?
  • SMIL (dholbert):
    • Fixed some bugs to allow better & faster reftesting, & added a bunch of new reftests
    • Fixed a bug that made acid3 test #76 fail occasionally with old patches. (There was a race condition between a short setTimeout in the test vs. the time before we take next frame of animation). Now it should always pass.
  • SVG fonts – karlt: won’t be in 1.9.1
  • SVG CSS, roc:
  • media queries (dbaron):
