cssSandpaper – a CSS3 JavaScript Library
Remix of images by Parée Erica and Hans Christophersen The cssSandpaper JavaScript library looks at the stylesheets in an HTML document and, where possible, smooths out the browser differences between CSS3 properties like transform , opacity , box-shadow and others. This script is not only useful for developers who want to support CSS3 in IE (which doesn’t support it in IE natively) but in other browsers which implement their own vendor-specific variants of these properties. For a good introduction to cssSandpaper and how it works under the covers, you may want to first read these blog-posts: Cross Browser Transforms — even in IE : this article talks about how why cssSandpaper was created and how it works under the hood.
Css3 Animated Social icons with Tooltip
The web is full of social icons, but almost all of them are image based so you can’t edit them easily and they look ugly if resized . Since i love avoiding images and javascript(if possible), i made these animated social icons in pure CSS using Web Symbols typeface . They are precoded for 4 most commonly used sizes(64×64, 48×48, 36×36, 24×24) but you can easily add others if you wish.I'm fall in love with the new UI of Path . I really love the user interaction design like the "add menu". So, as I'm a front-end developer, I tried to recreate the same thing on my browser.

I finally found some time to finish my short series of tutorials on CSS 3D transforms. If you haven't checked out part 1 & 2 I recommend you to do so, otherwise you will feel lost pretty soon. In this tutorial we will learn how to build a 3D packshot in HTML and CSS by applying some CSS 3D-transforms. Then we will add some Javascript to make the object freely rotatable in 3d space.

"Animating" with CSS used to be limited to hovering effects. With :hover and :focus pseudo classes we've been able to change color , size , background-color , position , and many other CSS properties based on user action. The :hover trick provides only two states - hovered and non-hovered - with only two keyframes: start and end, and no tweening between these states, creating a harsh and sudden transition. This isn't really animation.

With the arrival of IE9, Microsoft has signalled its intent to work more with standards-based technologies. With IE still the single most popular browser and in many ways the browser for the uninitiated, this is hopefully the long awaited start of us Web craftsmen embracing the idea of using CSS3 as freely as we do CSS 2.1. However, with IE9 not being supported on versions of Windows before Vista and a lot of businesses still running XP and reluctant (or unable) to upgrade, it might take a while until a vast majority of our users will see the new technologies put to practice. While plenty of people out there are using CSS3, many aren’t so keen or don’t know where to start. This article will first look at the ideas behind CSS3, and then consider some good working practices for older browsers and some new common issues.

The top 10 CSS3 techniques
This article originally appeared in issue 210 of .net magazine - the world's best-selling magazine for web designers and developers. While the following list does not include all of the great new properties in the CSS3 specification, this selection of the top 10 will give you a great start with your front-end coding projects. They’ll save you a lot of time and effort. Note: with the exception of @font-face, neither IE6, 7 nor 8 (from here on referred to as “the older IEs”) support any of the CSS3 properties. IE9 supports several properties and will be indicated.
In today's post, we'll be taking a look at how you can use CSS3 transitions to power your application's animations with jQuery's .animate() method as a fallback where transitions aren't supported. The benefit of transitions is that unlike JavaScript based animations, they're hardware accelerated in certain browsers and mobile devices, resulting in a potentially smoother overall animation than you would normally experience. In a lot of cases your code will work seamlessly with the solutions presented today, so the effort involved in applying them is minimal. Before we get started, if you'd prefer to see a sample of demos using today's fallbacks before reading the post, feel free to check some out below.
