gradient in new front end theme

The new default front end theme could be amended to

nav {
  border-top: solid 1px #e1a61a;
  border-bottom: solid 1px #e1a61a;
  background-color: #ffda44;
  /* Konqueror */
  background-image: -khtml-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, from(#ffda44), to(#fabc2b));
  /* Safari4+, Chrome */
  background-image: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, from(#ffda44), to(#fabc2b));
  /* Safari5.1+, Chrome10+ */
  background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient(#ffda44, #fabc2b);
  /* Firefox3.6 */
  background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(#ffda44, #fabc2b);
  /* Opera11.10+ */
  background-image: -o-linear-gradient(#ffda44, #fabc2b);
  /* CSS3 Compliant */
  background-image: linear-gradient(#ffda44, #fabc2b);
 /* for IE */
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr='#ffda44', endColorstr='#fabc2b');
}

so as to allow for ie browsers.

Re: gradient in new front end theme

That rule was there in earlier versions of the theme but I decided to take it out as its basically a hack. I’ll also be phasing out certain prefixes and IE7 support in the 4.6 version too.

Re: gradient in new front end theme

Hi Phil

there is another possible issue.

I use netrenderer to check my sites on ie and my latest install just doesn’t render on any ie8 and under.

Unrelated to this thread, but I sometimes use Netrenderer myself, especially to check on test cases (faster than launching a VM) and I’ve noticed that they’re sometimes slow in recent weeks, with very simple files timing out.

Re: gradient in new front end theme

Have you tried ie tester ? It works well, but is only available for Windows.

Re: gradient in new front end theme

I use browserstack, the whole 4.5 admin side was tested in Various versions of IE prior to release so I’m not sure what problem you are seeing? Some cosmetic things just won’t be available in older IE.

Re: gradient in new front end theme

@colak: nice artwork ;-).

I’ve seen similar rendering issues on netrenderer once. Using their IE 10 beta image. None could be repro’ed on more real installs (VM).
