Hello,
I've been working on a perl script to automate the task of creating CSS
rules that are compatible with IE5/Win (you know, the ones that look
like this):
#centercontent div.intro {
width: 273px;
height: 370px;
voice-family: "\"}\"";
voice-family: inherit;
width: 205px;
height: 360px;
}
Right now the tool works nicely on px and % based layouts of my own
creation, but I'm interested in having a few more eyes look at it and
see where it falls down. Usage is pretty straightforward -- point it at
your CSS file and it will generate the hacks.
You can download it from http://www.infinitespaces.com/bmah. It's
written in perl, and tested on Debian Linux perl 5.6.1. It requires the
CSS::SAC perl module, also linked from the above URL. I'd like to see
if it works in Windows, as well, if anyone is willing to test it out.
Thanks...
