CSS3 Introduction CSS3 is the latest standard for CSS. CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets. Styles define how to display HTML elements. HTML was intended to define the content of a document. HTML was never intended to contain tags for formatting a document. When tags like <font>, and color attributes were added to the HTML 3.2 specification, it started a nightmare for web developers. Development of large web sites, where fonts and color information were added to every single page, became a long and expensive process. To solve this problem, the World Wide Web Consortium ( W3C ) created CSS. In HTML 4.0, all formatting could be removed from the HTML document, and stored in a separate CSS file. CSS3 is completely backwards compatible, so you will not have to change existing designs. Browsers will always support CSS2. The CSS3 specification is still under development by W3C. However, many of the new CSS3 properties have been implemented in modern browsers, like Internet Explorer 9. This tutorial teaches you about the new features in CSS3! With CSS3, for example, you can create rounded borders, add shadow to boxes, and use an image as a border - without using a design program, like Photoshop. With CSS3 transform, we can move, scale, turn, spin, and stretch elements. During this transitional phase ( 2011, May ), pay attention to Browser Support and Compatibility.
