Firefox - border-radius etc.

[David]

Firefox just upgraded itself (as usual) and I'm now using 13.0.1 but I've just noticed that some border radius and box shadow CSS3 effects have now disappeared on this forum (the "Post New Thread" button for example).

Of course I haven't coded this myself so I'll need to check the CSS - I expect some change in the prefix for these features. I'll let you know.

OK, see here for the horses mouth: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/CSS/border-radius

Way down that page:

Note: Support for the non-prefixed version (-moz-border-radius) was removed in Gecko 13.0 (Firefox 13.0 / Thunderbird 13.0) .

And here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/CSS/box-shadow

Gecko 13 (Firefox 13) removed support for -moz-box-shadow. Since then, only the unprefixed version is supported.

Way to go vBulletin! What a crappy piece of software. And now I have to correct their poor CSS

It looks like there is an error in the note posted at Mozilla. It should read "Support for the prefixed version..."

Throughout vBulletin, the developers have used only the -moz- and -webkit- prefixed versions of both border-radius and box-shadow, there is no non-prefixed fallback. So the only effects still visible on the forum are the ones I have changed when skinning it

At the end of last week I bought a new license for IP Board for CADTutor and I'm working on a migration strategy now - no regrets - bye, bye vBulletin!

Very lazy coding! Bet this has caught a lot of other sites out as well. This seems like a positive move towards phasing out prefixes.

Looks like border-radius and box-shadow are fully supported now, still alot of properties relying on prefixes though.
