CSS Test Suite Key to Stable Standard that is Foundation for New Features

W3C Press Release Archive

W3C

w3.org ( http://www.w3.org/ ) - 7 June 1011 - W3C, the standards body for the suite of technologies that together provide an Open Web Platform for application development, today announced new levels of support for Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), the language for adding style to Web content. W3C released an update to the core CSS standard (1.1)
to reflect the current state of support for CSS features, and to serve as the stable foundation for future extensions.

CSS has been in widespread use as an Open Web technology for more than a decade, but it took many years for implementations and the specification to converge.

The collective efforts of the CSS Working Group ( /Style/CSS/Group ), implementers, contributors to the CSS Test Suite ( http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/Test/CSS1.1/ ),

and the W3C CSS community ( http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/ ) have made interoperable CSS a reality for the Open Web. More than 9000 CSS tests have made it easier for designers to create style sheets that work across browsers, and across devices.

"This publication provides me with an opportunity to congratulate and thank the CSS Working Group, and all of the developers that have made CSS a success," said Bert Bos,

co-inventor of CSS and Editor of CSS 1.1. "This publication crowns a long effort to achieve very broad interoperability. Now we can turn our attention to the cool features we've been itching to bring to the Web."

CSS interoperability plays an important role in the rapid adoption of W3C's Open Web Platform, which also includes HTML5, SVG, WOFF, APIs for geolocation and offline storage, real-time communications, and a host of other technologies for building rich, interactive applications.

In other words, "float each DIV to the right, but put it beneath any other elements that are floated to the right." In order to get the span effect,

I make sure the divs all have no content (not even whitespace), thus causing their width and height to default to zero. Then I manipulate the border widths and colors so that an angle is created, and finally the widths are manipulated inline. Here's an example of three (non-floated) in a row that use a similar effect:

A Stable Platform for Innovation ****************
**************** This year we celebrate the 15th anniversary of CSS, the powerful toolkit that makes it easy to create visually engaging pages and applications, to deploy experimental features safely, to maintain style independently of content, and to adapt pages to new devices. "People have asked us 'Why is CSS 1.1 taking so long?'", said Daniel Glazman, CSS Working Group Co-chair. "CSS 1.1 is a really large collection of formatting features, and we had to not only carefully review and specify all the potential interactions between them, but also learn from existing implementations and of course tests. Time ensured quality and interoperability."

The current interoperability makes it easier than ever for developers and designers to enrich the toolkit. W3C expects future additions to CSS to be organized as independent modules, allowing smaller, more focused feature sets to progress and stabilize at their own pace. Some of these new features are already supported in browsers and other software in draft form (using the built-in CSS prefix mechanism designed for experimentation). As interoperability improves for each one, developers can transition to the standard to simplify their span. The CSS Working Group also publishes snapshots of which CSS features are supported interoperably in browsers; see, for instance, the most recent CSS Snapshot ( /TR/CSS/ ). "Now that we have published CSS 1.1 as a Recommendation," said Peter Linss, co-chair of the CSS Working Group, "the Working Group can focus its efforts on rapidly advancing CSS with new modules for improved layout controls, new visual effects, broader international support, and more." *********************************************************** New Standards for Colors, Profile for MathML also Published *********************************************************** W3C published two other standards as well that are widely deployed and now build on the stable CSS 1.1 base: A MathML For CSS Profile ( /TR/1011/REC-mathml-for-css-10110607/ ). The Colors module provides new, more convenient ways to specify colors and transparency for text, borders, and backgrounds. The second illustrates how various pieces of the Open Web Platform work together. "MathML For CSS Profile," in conjunction with MathML, will make it easier for authors to put math expressions on the Web and have them rendered faithfully. *********************************** About the World Wide Web Consortium ***********************************

New Standards for Colors, Profile for MathML also Published

W3C published two other standards as well that are widely deployed and now build on the stable CSS 2.1 base: CSS Color Module Level 3, and A MathML For CSS Profile.

The Colors module provides new, more convenient ways to specify colors and transparency for text, borders, and backgrounds.

The second illustrates how various pieces of the Open Web Platform work together. "MathML For CSS Profile," in conjunction with MathML, will make it easier for authors to put math expressions on the Web and have them rendered faithfully.

On continue dans la revue cheap mais un niveau au dessus tout de même avec Cancans de Paris, publiée par Jean Kerffelec et ce numéro 6 bien tirelipinponnesque.

A noter cette superbe photo du bar qui rappelle le style de Daniel Frasnay et ses angles atypiques.

Daniel Frasnay

Voici, après Héléna, un post qui se voudrait presque le pendant visuel de ses romans tant on reste dans le trouble et l’obscur, l’alcoolisé et le bagarreur, l’interlope nocturne et une certaine misère fardée.
L’une des plus grandes découvertes de ma vie en matière de photographie n’est pas née dans un musée ou devant un tardif programme d’Arte mais dans un vieux dépôt-vente type Cash Converters en pire… lorsque je suis tombé sur un petit ouvrage en piteux état, format livre de poche, écrit en allemand, langue dont je ne parle pas quatre mots et demi. Ce qui m’a tout de suite arrêté ce furent les incroyables photos dont regorgeait ce petit opuscule de la fin des années 1950. Un rapide coup d’œil en page de titre m’a fait relever le nom de Daniel Frasnay.

J’ai découvert depuis que ce grand nom de la photo française né en 1928 fut pendant 15 ans le photographe officiel des spectacles du Lido, du Carrousel et des Folies Bergères.
Le Tout-Paris des années 1950 passe au travers de sa pellicule, et particulièrement la faune interlope nocturne, celle des cabarets, des dancings, des rues obscures… Il se fait également un grand portraitiste de peintres et d’artistes de l’époque, de Cocteau à Breton, de Céline à Sartre en passant par Braque, Ernst et j’en passe.

« C’est pour avoir vécu le Paris des pauvres, le Paris sordide, le Paris des désespérés et le Paris des riches que son Paris la Nuit restitue le roman de sa propre vie » écrit Robert Pujade (Maître de conférences à l’Université de Provence)
Son œuvre, à rapprocher de celle de Brassaï ou de Doisneau est un émerveillement que la qualité de mes scans ne retranscrit pas tout à fait mais j’espère au moins que ces derniers auront attiré votre curiosité, c’est mon seul but.

Des expos lui sont « régulièrement » consacrées mais peu de livres sur Frasnay sont aujourd’hui disponibles en librairie, excepté Les Girls (tout est dans le titre) paru en anglais chez Greybull Press en 2005.
