== BrowserizedStyles == Browserized Styles provides a dead simple way to create browser and operating sytem-specific CSS code for use in a Rails application. All you need to do is create a .css file targeted to a browser by appending an underscore and identifiers to the end. === Installation === script/plugin install http://svn.intridea.com/svn/public/browserized_styles === Example === Let's say I have some complex CSS code that looks bad in some browsers, but works in others. Let's also say that i've put it into a stylesheet in stylesheets/complex.css. My stylesheet link tag looks something like this: <%= stylesheet_link_tag 'complex' %> Now all I have to do to target a browser is create a new CSS file with the browser's identifier appended to it with an underscore (e.g. "complex_ie6.css"). That's it! The same exact stylesheet link tag will automatically check the current user agent and load a browser-specific CSS file if it exists. Ta-da! One-step browser styles! === Identifiers === Browsers and OS's are identified as following. You would create the CSS file as "yourcssfile_browsername.css" or "yourcssfile_osname" or "yourcssfile_browsername_osname" ==== Browsers ==== IE6: ie6 IE7: ie7 Opera: opera Firefox: gecko Safari: safari Konqueror: konqueror ==== Operating Systems ==== Mac OS (X or prior): mac Windows (any): win Linux: linux === Limitations and Caveats === At this time the plugin is only designed to work with .css files in your stylesheets directory. It will not work at present with URL-based stylesheets or stylesheets not found in your stylesheets directory (or some subdirectory thereof). At the moment, stylesheets are included in this order: original, browser-specific, os-specific, browser-and-os-specific. This is logically from least to most specific, but if you need a different order you will have to hack it manually. === Resources === Blog Article: http://www.intridea.com/2007/12/9/announcing-browserized-styles Trac: http://trac.intridea.com/trac/public/ SVN: script/plugin install http://svn.intridea.com/svn/public/browserized_styles Copyright (c) 2007 Michael Bleigh and Intridea, Inc., released under the MIT license
