I'm not entirely sure, but I guess most portions of the ECMA
standard are covered. However the ECMA standard as-is is far away
from being sufficient for todays web-browsing. The KDE javascript
implementation implements a bunch of Netscape and IE extensions, the
support for that however is not complete (I guess one can't reach
100% :) . A lot of impressive work has gone into the HEAD javascript
implementation and the html bindings. I'm looking forward to switch
konq/e to HEAD khtml and kjs as soon as Qtopia does. That will bring
a lot of improvements on the rendering side as well as on the
javascript side. A real lot.

See bugs.kde.org for some hints :)

It should be equivalent to the KDE 2.2.2 desktop konqueror, more or
less. (except for netscape and java plugins)
