Adding CSS3 Support To IE 6, 7 and 8 With CSS3 Pie

Posted by Soulskill on from the bringing-civilization-to-the-savages dept.

rsk writes "Internet Explorer 6, 7 and to some extent 8 have been the bane of every CSS-loving web developer for years. With the spreading adoption of CSS3's fancier rendering effects, like rounded edges, drop shadows and linear gradients, the frustration of needing to deal with IE compatibility is growing. 327 Creative's Jason Johnston has created the CSS3 Pie library to address this. CSS3 Pie adds support for CSS3's most popular rendering techniques to Internet Explorer 6, 7 and 8 by way of the IE-only CSS property 'behavior.' CSS3 Pie is open sourced under the Apache 2 license and can be accessed from its github repository."

    If you were intelligent enough to know how to install CSS3 Pie*, you wouldn't even use IE.

    *not exactly "install" per se seeing as it's a library, not an application but you know what I mean. Hopefully.

    There was a young monk from Dundee
    Who hung a nun's cunt on a tree.
    He grabbed her fair ass
    And performed a high mass
    That even the Pope came to see.

    Won't be a better solution to use instead Google Chrome Frame? (IF you still have to run IE, at least)
