Strictly for the web designer:CSS3 features in ie 8

Aqua · Jun 21, 2014

Hi Member

I have been working on a web project using html5 and CSS3,the site looks ok in other browser that support CSS3 features especially border-radius and box-shadow.

I would like to get help from the real developers who know what they are doing on how to implement the border-radius on internet explorer 8 browser.I know as a developer you have been considering cross browser issues for your web projects.I have visited some websites ,checked their solution I am still working on them,and if you have used or you are an expert in using modernizr I will be more than happy to have your solution by using modernizr.

Should I thank you in advance?Thank you in advance .

Regards
Aqua

Dreson3 -webkit ni prefix inayotumiwa kwa browser za google chrome na safari kama kuna feature hazisupport unaweza anza na hiyo prefix,tatizo langu ni I.E so haitasaidia. -moz- for firefox na -ms-for I.E na -o- for opera.Thanks anyway

The fact that you don't know the difference shows that you are just downloading ready made themes and sell them to your clients, you are not a designer, its actually fraud if you tell your clients you are a web designer.

Back to you Aqua, here's how you can do it. You can use HTMLShiv/m (https://code.google.com/p/html5shiv/ ) or my favorite solution is Don't create anything for those people that are still using ie8, Why? because first of all people need to stop using ie8 and upgrade their browsers, secondly we (developers) don't like ie and we want it to go to hell, so stopping supporting it in our work is a good way of telling Microsoft to stop messing with us and retire their shitty browser.

You can also try using a css framework like zurb-foundation(my favorite) /twitter bootstrap, they will help you solve most of the common issues in those browsers and all you have to do is concentrate with your project.

Its a shame that you don't want to use your head and still want to be a designer(I am not surprised though, we Tanzanians are good at not using our heads and looking for the 'easy' way out). Our industry has so many people like you, i call them 'frauds'. By the way i don't do designing anymore, i do other things that people looking for shortcuts can't 'shortcut' their way into, so i don't think Odesk would be necessary for me.

Hi Zech,I appreciate your suggestion,I have already achieved the results using CSS3pie however,I will work on your suggestions and add them to my toolbox.
Speaking on I.E 8 what you are saying is correct or wrong depending on how you perceive it.It is true you may say you should not design for i.e 8 or less but trust me,now days we have people who call themselves IT professionals but they do not even bother to update browsers for the users they support.May be they do not know how important using the latest of technology is.In May2014 browser statistics show only 8.9% use I.E but as a designer we are not advised to ignore the minority because you do not know if your visitors will have the latest version of I.E hence you have also to consider them.
Just design for I.E as a fallback plan,just in case.I will work on your suggestions.

Hadi hapo we si web developer, unajifanya kua web developer.... unajua advantages za IE against other browsers??
bado kuna audience huko, kama developer still hata hao inabidi uwafikie, kusema ati waache ukidhani watafata content yako unajidanganya, am sure unafanya kitu ambacho hata wengine wanaweza kufanya na wakakiweka kwenye browsers zote vizuri kuliko wewe.... ideology mbaya sana umekuja nayo

Fair point, i can't argue with you on whether i am a developer or not, I am opinionated and so is my work. As a developer you have a choice, design to support ie or ignore ie, i chose to ignore it but i always give a fallback option.Try using Google chrome on your shitty browser and see what happens.

I agree that there's many people still using older browsers and in most of my work they are definitely not my target so ignoring them is the right option to me and...from a developer's point of view, there's no advantage of ie over other(better) browsers, i expected you to know that by now 'Mr Web Developer'.
