Similarly… foiled again.

Me, earlier:

Oh cool, the @ page size descriptor is supported by Chrome, Firefox and Safari! I’ll use it for this print and PDF layout that needs to be A4 landscape.

Me, now, actually trying it:

Wait, why isn’t it working? Oh. Oh no. It does not work at all in Safari. And MDN/caniuse.com say it does, but they are wrong (and there is an open issue about it).

The WebKit bug 63575 is from… 14.5 years ago.

Was ist mit Euch?

Es kann ganz allgemein im w3 "Big Blue Button" starten [Nutzende, Entwickelnde, Fördernde egal] und bei Interesse könnten wir dann taskforces bilden.

Würde dann 1 Aufruf starten …

Another great new CSS feature that is starting to be available in more browsers is field-sizing, which allows you to size an input to fit its value with:

field-sizing: content;

Great for UI like tags, where you want to be able to type directly into them and have them automatically resize to fit the text.

(#CanIUse shows the feature as not being available in Safari Technology Preview, even though all the individual child features show that it is available)

If you haven’t used it before, image-set() is used in CSS in any place where you’d normally use an image. Here’s a simple example where the browser will use JPEG XL if it supports it, or JPEG if it doesn’t:

background-image: image-set(
url("bg.jxl") type("image/jxl"),
url("bg.jpg") type("image/jpeg")
);

( you can also specify resolutions, e.g. url() 2x type() )
