Anyone knows something about CSS 3?
I mean: I know you can make rounded corners, shadows, colums and other stuff, but, when will it come out of beta?
Only firfox supports it?
What is this WebKit and how do I install it on windows?
Any help welcome
Thanks,
K

There are many modules which are developped separatly. You can follow the development on the CSS page. | Quote: |

Gecko engine (the one used by Fx) supports somes CSS3 features. Opera supports others, and KHTML others... | Quote: |

WebKit is a browser base, using KHTML engine. To test it on win32, you can try Swift.OK!
Thank you!
So we'll just have to wait to use all these new features!
Just an advice... focus on learning CSS 1 and 2 a lot. Some CSS 2 reatures are not still full implemented on some browsers, so CSS 3 will take a while to get full supported...

Random but who the hell writes those things? I mean the W3 people must have written so much documentation, I've tried reading something on w3.org once but just gave up because it was so long, complicated, and boring.The W3C specs are written for web developpers or web softwares developpers. If you're not one of them, the specs could appear complicated.
But for instance, I've got absolutly no problems reading and understanding them...
Webkit is only available for Safari on mac osx. Its CSS support is really good. There was a project to port the webkit engine to windows, but I only remember seeing a really early alpha release that wasn't really impressive at all. But webkit is an opensource project so the possibilities of getting it ported to windows or even linux is there.
As far as I know I've only seen text drop-shodows and rounded corners working in safari. I think CSS3.0 supports a lot more and will probably be better supported in Safari 3.0 and firefox 3.0. safari 3.0 can be expected with OSX 10.5 leopard this spring.
ok, thanks then.
we'lll have to wait until it comes out of beta...
I think its really impressive all you can do with css.
wonderful
You can use some CSS 3 features today, FF2 currently supports the opaque tag, which is useful because it degrades gracefully, and serves a purpose that used to be done with javascript. For example
| Code: |
li.bk {display: inline; opacity:.50; padding-left: 2px; padding-right: 2px;}
li.bk:hover {opacity:1;}
|
Applies to the social bookmarking buttons. drop shadow is working with css1 and 2 in most browsers, so that wont be new in css3.. and rounded corners exist aswell, they'll just make the code alot shorter as I've understood it.
some clue about how to write css for rounded corners.
the one of the opacity is a nice one!
