Do you need a CSS editor?

I got an email the other day asking me why I didn't recommend WYSIWYG CSS editors. That seemed like a really good question, so I started looking at the CSS editors I know about and you know what? There really aren't any WYSIWYG CSS editors of note. Now, mind you, I'm not talking about Dreamweaver and other Web Design software programs that support CSS, I'm talking about CSS editors. If you know of a CSS editor that is WYSIWYG, not just with a preview mode, but actually WYSIWYG, I'd love to know about it. But in the mean time, if you're looking for a CSS editor, I've set up a questionnaire to help you determine the best ones for your needs.

Does your browser support CSS 2? What about CSS 3?

One of the first steps in deciding to use advanced CSS techniques such as those found in CSS 3 and some CSS 2 is knowing what browsers your customers use. If their browsers don't support the CSS you want to use, then it won't do you a lot of good to use it. While I can't tell you what browsers your customers use, this article will give you some help in determining what CSS the browsers support.

CSS 1 properties are a great start

CSS If you're trying to learn CSS, you should first learn the CSS 1 properties. These are the most widely supported CSS properties and you won't go wrong with them. There are a lot of things that CSS 1 can do for your Web pages but you'll never know if you don't try them out.

Standardize your CSS workflow

One thing that novice Web designers don't realize is that even if you have a very powerful Web editor like Dreamweaver or Expression Web, you still need to think about CSS development from a coder's perspective. Hopefully, someday this will change and editors will be better at CSS development than they are now. (Note: these tools are good at writing CSS, they just aren't perfect.) If you have a plan and a workflow that you follow every time you start to build a CSS Web page, you'll get the best results out of what CSS can do for you.

There are official CSS colors

color wheel CSS introduced a lot of new concepts in the way that we manage Web pages. And one of those things was the list of official color keywords. CSS color keywords are essentially the same as the SVG color keywords, but there are fewer of them. They are also more readily supported by most user agents and browsers. If you have just gotten started using color keywords, you should focus on the official CSS color keywords before moving onto the SVG keywords.

Finnish Appeals Court Rules Breaking CSS Illegal

Thomas Nybergh writes "Due to an appeal court decision from a couple of days back, breaking the not very effective CSS copy protection used on most commercial DVD-Video discs is now a criminal act in Finland (robo translated). The verdict is contrary to what a district court thought of the same case last year when two local electronic rights activists were declared not guilty after having framed themselves by spreading information on how to break CSS . Back then it was to the activists' benefit has CSS been badly broken and inneffective ever since DeCSS came out."

Cocoa-Like JavaScript Framework Announced

TwilightSentry writes "Ars Technica reports that a group of developers has created an Objective-C-like extension to JavaScript along with a class library mirroring Cocoa. They've used these to release an impressive demo app called 280 Slides. The article notes, 'Whereas SproutCore seeks to "embrace the platform" by giving a Cocoa-like development model for developers already using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to make a web app, Cappuccino and Objective-J take an entirely different approach. "Since Cappuccino runs entirely on the client, at run time, we're never actually generating HTML or CSS," says Boucher. "When you build an application in Cappuccino, you don't need to ever deal with HTML or CSS. All of your interface is designed in Objective-J and Cappuccino.

NYTimes.com Hand-Codes HTML & CSS

eldavojohn writes "The design director of NYTimes.com, Khoi Vinh, recently answered readers' questions in the Times's occasional feature 'Ask the Times.' He was asked how the Web site looks so consistently nice and polished no matter which browser or resolution is used to access it. His answer begins: 'It's our preference to use a text editor, like HomeSite, TextPad or TextMate, to "hand code" everything, rather than to use a wysiwyg (what you see is what you get) HTML and CSS authoring program, like Dreamweaver. We just find it yields better and faster results.'"
