Notes

  • Level of support for property is based on CSS2.1. So, if a browser supports all of CSS2.1 but not CSS3, they will get be listed as supporting the property.
  • Browsers include:
    1. IE6
    2. IE7
    3. IE7 compatibility mode
    4. IE8
    5. Firefox 3 (some 3.5 beta)
    6. Safari 3.2 (some 4 beta)
    7. Opera 9.64
  • When you hover over the deltas, in standards compliant browsers, informaiton on how the browsers fails to comply with standards should be displayed.
  • This is still a work in progress, but it’s pretty far along, so I am posting. It will be updated soon and often until done… then I’ll remove this bullet point.
