Cool text fields? Safari soon gets them

March 31st, 2006


Safari will get support for super-very-rich-stylable textfields in an upcoming release. It even includes support for advanced CSS niceties as:


border-image: url('frame.gif') 17%;
border-width: 20px;
border-radius: 5px;

or


border: 0px;
background-color: lightgreen;
border-radius: 20px;
text-shadow: 3px 3px grey;

Firefox 2 will be in for a tough ride (at least on the Mac platform).

Oh, and can we have Safari for Windows, please?
