Hiding Mozilla extensions to the CSS validator

Filed under:  Google about "CSS" |  Google about "WordPress"

This story is based on something I used in my old blog, when, thanks to Wordpress, I first started to think about tableless designs.

Once upon a time... I came across an interesting article on how to create rounded corners with CSS only. Surprising and pretty nice trick, but maybe too complex just for a bit of fun. At that time, I haven't looked seriously at the power of CSS standards and CSS related sites such as A List Apart, Zen Garden, etc. (see Holy CSS Zelman! for a lot of interesting CSS related web sites). Well, I thought it would be nice to experiment with said technique, but I was mostly anchored to good old HTML, so I abandoned, at first...

...some time ago (while experimenting with tableless designs to create the theme for my old blog) I discovered the same (or similar) effect could be achieved using some proprietary CSS extensions for gecko (aka mozilla) based browsers. Well, why not? After all, there has been, for years, many people writing HTML/CSS with IE only in mind... there are even several W3C standards that were initially introduced by MS... oh well, maybe one day some of those tiny -moz extensions (if web designers use them, I thought) become adapted by the W3C... hmm... firefox's user base grows, it's being used more and more everyday... good, I would happily use them, however, I abandoned again because I wanted to keep the HTML/CSS validation links on the sidebar to report success...

Though... I just got an idea to fool the CSS validator, heh...


Where is the WP-TinyMCE plugin?

WP-TinyMCE is a plugin I made when I was using WordPress for my blog, but that was version 1.5. Although WordPress 2.x includes TinyMCE, my logs are telling me that some of you out there are still looking for WP-TinyMCE.
