Office 2010 X86 Microsoft nixes '-webkit' prefix f

It appeared like an excellent thought to some Microsoft developers (for any brief moment): Why not add support for each the -ms and -webkit prefixes in the edition of the internet Explorer (IE) cellular browser Microsoft was creating for Windows Telephone 7 products?It turns out the idea was a bad 1. And it took Microsoft just one day to change its route,Office 2010 Pro Plus X64, as documented in two back-to-back weblog posts on the “IE for Windows Telephone Team” blog.A quick bit of background: Webkit is the rendering engine at the heart of a number of browsers, including those from Apple,Office 2010 Standard, Google, Nokia and RIM, among others. Microsoft uses its own rendering engine, known as Trident,Office 2010 X86, inside Web Explorer. When browser developers implement an experimental or proprietary CSS property, they prefix it with the appropriate “vendor prefix.”On May 10, in a post entitled “JavaScript and CSS changes in IE Cellular for Windows Telephone seven,” Windows Telephone Principal Program Manager Joe Marini explained Microsoft;s plans for adding two prefixes to the version of IE (a hybrid of IE 7 and 8) that it is constructing for Windows Phone 7.Community reaction was unfavorable (to put it mildly) about Microsoft;s decision to add the -webkit prefix. Daniel Glazman, the co-chairman of the W3cCSS Working Group weighed in with the following comment (at the end of the original Microsoft blog post):“Let me state it very clearly: vendor prefixes are here for experimental purposes by the vendor represented inside the prefix. I __strongly__ recommend removing *immediately* that -webkit-* property from Cellular IE.”On May 11, the IE for Windows Phone Team did a 180. As explained in a new blog post by Marini:“Our original intent in adding support for this WebKit-specific property was to make Web developers’ lives a bit easier by not having to add yet another vendor-prefixed CSS property to their pages to control how text was scaled. Even more specifically,Office Pro Plus 2010 Activation, we intuited that the most common use case for this property was to explicitly set it to ‘none; in order to tell the browser not to scale a particular section of text….“After hearing the community’s feedback on this issue (and a couple of face-palms when we realized the broader implications of implementing other browser vendors’ CSS properties),Office 2010 Professional Plus Serial cl��, we’ve decided that it’s best to only implement the -ms- prefixed edition and not the -webkit- one.”Microsoft is putting the finishing touches around the operating system that will power Windows Telephone seven products. A near-final escrow build of the release candidate of the Windows Telephone seven OS leaked recently. Microsoft officials have declined to say when the company expects to release to manufacturing that operating system, but the first Windows Telephone 7 gadgets are due out by this holiday season.
