New CSS filters are being developed and tested by Adobe in hopes of releasing them next year.

Play around with them here:

People stopped using filters?

Every uncreative forum sig begs to differ.


But still, that's a neat find. I wonder what they will bring to the filter table.

The filter prop itself is fairly new - but text-stroke (aka drop shadow) and box-shadow (aka glow) have been out for a while.

I'm not entirely sure how I feel about it, some of the filters are really resource hungry.

(also, adobe isn't developing them. >.> there's a guy from adobe on the w3 board I believe, but the browser vendors are the ones who actually have to develop it)

That is what bothers me. w3 was created as a method of standardizing the web.
Yet webkit, gecko, and other engines are trying to ruin that by introducing their own implementations of the same ideas.
I, personally, blame <blink> for starting it all.

Actually, the w3 board is comprised of people from all of the major vendors. I *think* adobe has a spot, I know MS/google and moz have a spot.

When they do stuff with vendor specific prefixes (ie -webkit-transition) it's simply because its not ready to be released yet, but the stuff is in the draft.

Oh, okay. That makes a bit more sense.
So is HTML5 not actually web standard yet, or are the exclusive tags just further implementations that have not been absorbed by the standard?

It's still a work-in-progress but if you see it in a browser there's a good chance it's in the draft.
