What I’m Reading: 3/20

  1. CSS Styled Scroll­bars With Mootools and JQuery: Cur­rently, only the IEs sup­port the styling of scroll­bars with CSS alone (although scroll­bar styles are part of CSS3). This post links to a cou­ple of Javascript-library-based tech­niques to get the job done in the meantime.
  2. Mak­ing ‘IE6-friendly’ PNG8 Images: Turns out our beloved hack to get trans­par­ent PNG32s in IE6 can some­times crash the browser. To play it safe and ensure crash-free view­ing of your site, it’s prob­a­bly best to use PNG8 until IE6 is no longer a fac­tor (some­day, «ras­safrackin…»). This post gives you some tech­niques to make your PNG8 graph­ics almost as use­ful as PNG32s.
