CSS Browser Selector
2014-02-19
I have not had time to work on this in a long time. Is there anyone interested in taking over? Maybe you can take this project to the next level.
CSS Browser Selector is a very small javascript which empowers CSS selectors.
You can now write code for: browser, browser version, platform, platform version, device, device version.
Best part: no more hacks; all compliant code.
