Small browsers implementing cool features always makes it painfully obvious how poor and inextensible HTML and CSS really are. There's no way you can use CSS3 for the next 4-8 years.
- iamelgringo 17y agoI can't imagine how long it's going to take to get HTML 5 supported in a decent percentage of installed browsers?
- truebosko 17y agoGoogle is pushing big for HTML5 and it seems to be in the works for Firefox 3.5, Safari, not sure about IE.
- truebosko 17y agoIs there any downside though to using something like the @font-face css3 tag? It seems to fallback quite nicely to whatever secondary, standard font you setup so I don't see why not use it to give the people using more up-to-date browsers a benefit.
- rimantas 17y agoWhy wait, you can use parts of it today. Sure, IE may not get it, but it is called progressive enhancement for a reason.
- TweedHeads 17y agoFirefox 3.5, Safari 4 and Opera 10 are all up to date with some HTML5 stuff and CSS3. They all auto-update their users so half of the world will be up to date by the end of the year. Guess who is lagging behind...
- pkulak 17y agoI (and my coworkers) have lately taken to coding for Safari/FF/Opera as long as IE will degrade in some way that's not horrible. For example, we used to have this rounded corner div helper that did all kinds of crazy shit to get rounded corners in IE. Now though, we just set moz-border-radius, webkit-border-radius and border-radius. IE users see a box with sharp corners, and if Microsoft ever implements border-radius they'll see it rounded, but until then it's not really a big deal. I could see doing the same thing with fonts or other such "nice" additions to CSS.
