Does conforming to W3C standards ensure that the page will be rendered the same way on each browser?

I have noticed, there are subtle differences.

True. Because the browsers themselves don't actually stick to the 'standard'. W3C standards arn't always followed. Everyone (actually mainly the FF Users) claim(s) that firefox renders pages properly, and that it is IE at fault, whilst Netscape and Opera, and all the other browsers still render slightly differently as well. I honestly have to admit though, I test my pages in a lot of different browsers, and IE is by far the farthest off.

Oh wow.... 5-10% who use a browser without javascript support? @___@

I'm not talking about enabled/disabled, just being able to plain support it. I can't think of a single browser offhand that doesn't. Perhaps automated surfing using a scripting language.

May I see where you got those stats from?

Oh, I meant people who browse the web without JS. Either
way, that's not important - it's not related to the thread,
and it's not related to the CDATA tags.
