Derek follows up to his excellent Browser Elitism post with some more thoughts on this interesting subject.
The core idea here seems to be at what point do you not code something for one browser? And why? Is it too hard? Too much overhead? It really makes you think.
And then I started reading the comments. There is a whole other sidetrack/thought process that is just as brilliant brought forth by Jeremy Keith that talks about presentational vs. behaviour layers. Shouldn’t items like :hover and :focus belong in the behavoir layer rather than the presentational layer?
Using CSS to do the work of DOM scripting is just as bad as using HTML to do the work of CSS.
Lot’s of good things to think about here.
