Tripoli: A Generic CSS Standard

Blogged on August 20, 2007 at 19:15

Tripoli is a generic CSS standard for HTML rendering. By resetting and rebuilding browser standards, Tripoli forms a stable, cross-browser rendering foundation for your web projects.

So, while reading Dave’s blog feed, I came across his post where he talks about the development of a tool for CSS developers that helps making sure the correct styles appear on all kinds of browsers: Tripoli. Basically it provides the designer with a starting point for some generic tags, avoiding repetitions and making sure everything will look good on every browser. I could’ve called it a “framework”, but I don’t think it truly aims to be one. If you take a look at the examples on the Tripoli you might grasp it’s usefulness.

I haven’t used it on any project, but on the other hand I think more CMS should try to develop their own CSS frameworks in order to keep things clean for theme designers, or use existing ones. I’m kind of tired of “CSS Madness” on some CMS generated HTML. Just my $0.02…

I’ll now give you a little “preciosity”…

Taken from the Tricoli’s webpage source-code… Kind of weird, huh? :)
Still feels to be relevant information to me… :o
