[WSG] IE8: Extensions to CSS

2009-03-26 Thread tee
I was looking for a IE8 CSS support chart (do you know any?) and  
stumble on this site:


http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc304082(VS.85).aspx

Extensions to CSS
The following CSS attributes are Microsoft extensions to the CSS 2.1  
specification and should be specified with an -ms- prefix in IE8 mode:


• -ms-accelerator
• -ms-background-position-x
• -ms-background-position-y

.

Interesting! Would be nice if it has -ms-border-radius .

Why do Microsoft always feel the need to include their own properties.

Are these in the CSS 2.1 specs? I've never seen them.

 Why do Microsoft always feel the need to include their own properties.

Back in the day Microsoft utterly dominated the browser market, and as a
byproduct of this were the main force of innovation in browsers and the web
experience in general. IE was often released with non-standard features that
were later incorporated into new standards. They still do this today, but
their market share has decreased somewhat. Very simple.

For the same reason as Mozilla, Apple, etc. And I think I know the
reason... because 5 years down the road, there's always a chance that
a new property will become a candidate for an upcoming CSS spec.

At least they followed the convention of prefixing the extensions.
