browser makers are implementing stuff that not everyone
has agreed to.
and it’s ok.
border-radius: 12px;
-webkit-border-radius: 12px; /* Saf3+, Chrome */
-moz-border-radius: 12px; /* FF1+ */
{
}
/* Opera 10.5, IE 9 */
div.block {-moz-border-radius: 12px;-webkit-border-radius: 12px;-khtml-border-radius: 12px;border-radius: 12px;}
browser makers are implementing stuff in bits and pieces
over time.
and it’s ok.
the Css working group (where css is born)
is creating the spec over time
in
“modules”
