In the past month or so I have wrote three articles/tutorials on various CSS3 elements that the developers of CSS3 have been working on, I've shown you some of my favorite new features such as the border-radius attribute and box-shadow, but I have had to stress on each article that only certain browsers will allow to use CSS3 modules and elements. The main two browsers that have supported CSS3 along it's on going development path are Mozilla Firefox and Safari, both using there own frameworks the moz and webkit, with Mozilla constantly making revisions to there browser and currently working on Mozilla Firefox 3.1 (Currently in BETA) alot of CSS3 is supported and able to be displayed, similar with Safari, particularly the latest version of Safari (which is version 4 BETA) packs in more CSS3 into the webkit and like Mozilla people are able to use CSS3 and see the effects.

Back in January 2009 I did a somewhat new year suprise to you all and made the new 2009 theme, "Renovatio" for James' Blog more of a suprise than anything as I'd been developing the theme and did not make any post about it, and one day *poof* new theme to James' Blog and I got very good responces from people saying it was a good improvement and they really liked it, but the theme took longer than expected because of display issues in different browsers. Which brings me onto a somewhat article/rant about browsers.
This was a topic covered in episode 6 of the FS-Air podcast which I am part of (Episode will go out on Friday), and we all shared our views on the subject and the reason why we're excited about it. Because the podcast has time a length limit which we generally stick to I didn't include everything that im looking forward to in CSS3. (As we also covered other points so we generally spend the same time on each section) For anyone who is wondering what the hell CSS3 is, basically it is the new version of the CSS language. The W3 (World Wide Web Consortium) have already started sending out there new version out to various browsers company's and have began referencing it on there website, but with that being said, I don't expect it to be fully supported in browsers for a while yet
