To play devil's advocate, though... is an accordion or a carousel "functionality" any more than, say, a drop-down or a multi-line input box is? I mean, the games examples are pretty wacky (in a cool but "thank God I don't have to debug these" way), but things like tabs and tree views are so ubiquitous that a case could be made for having standard HTML input tags for them.

- Kluny 10y agoNeat!
- mcv 10y agoThey just display stuff, right? I'm fine with having those in pure CSS if it can be done in an understandable and maintainable way. But the decision to display a message in a modal popup when you click a button is functionality and should be javascript. The behaviour of the modal popup itself is fine as CSS. Well, that's my opinion at least.
