Happy Birthday, CSS!

First of all, sorry that I haven’t posted in a long while. It’s been a big crunch at work, but we’ve cranked out a Brand new homepage. I’m planning on writing up a few articles about the development process and architecture behind it in the few days.

Anyway, this week we celebrate CSS10: Ten Year Anniversary of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). It’s been 10 big years since CSS debuted. I remember the good old days, when I first started building websites. CSS wasn’t supported at all. Everything used the font tag and its many glorious attributes. If you wanted a background color, you used bgcolor. Margin only worked sporadically on certain elements. In most cases, if it wasn’t a table it wasn’t working.

Now, I only use CSS and can’t remember most of those decprecated properties that I used to rely on to make anything look halfway decent. Tables are back to where they belong, holding data. Here’s to 10 more!
