CSS3 linear gradients are supported in Android 2.3+, Chrome 1+, Firefox

is an option for cross-browser compatibility.


Just an opinion here, not meant as a troll, but "cross-browser
compatibility" is something of a chimera, I believe.

It's ten years since I took my first class in Web development. It was
Internet Explorer that convinced me of CSS's value over other design
methods. The other browser of note was Netscape 4, which had very poor
support for CSS, but it was easy to give it its own set of styles.

Then, as now, I apply as much CSS enhancement that a browser is able to use,
without worrying about those browsers that can't show a drop shadow,
gradient, or rounded corner. I do make sure content is available to old
browsers though, including IE 6. :)

YMMV of course, and this is not a blanket recommendation. Rather, it's
something you may like to consider.
