Formalize CSS
Formulare zu gestalten ist nicht wirklich eine Freude. Formalize CSS versucht Formulare in unterschiedlichen Browsern und Betriebssystemen einheitlicher zu präsentieren.
I want some measure of control over form elements, without changing them so drastically as to appear foreign in a user’s operating system. Thus, my quest to find a happy medium, where browsers would generally agree and let me keep my sanity. The result is what I’m simply referring to as Formalize CSS.
I’ve attempted to bridge the gap between various browsers and OS’s, taking the best ideas from each, and implementing what is possible across the board. For the most part, this means most textual form elements have a slight inset, and all buttons look consistent, including the button tag.
I have also added a few niceties. All browsers that support box-shadow — even those on Windows and Linux — now have a light blue :focus border, ala OS X. Also, via jQuery I’ve added support for the HTML5 placeholder and autofocus attributes, for browsers that don’t yet handle it natively.
