Adding Generated Content
2005-01-13 10:53:44It's a natural step in the development of CSS- the ability to use CSS to dynamically insert content onto the page that's part of an element's style. For example, a bullet image alongside a link to draw attention to the link can be considered a "styling content", since the image serves no purpose other than to dress up the link. So it makes sense to have CSS at least be able to insert this content (in this case, a bullet image) should you choose to. Well, starting in CSS2, support for Generated Content is here! Note that currently only Firefox 1.0+ and Opera 7.5+ support this feature, while IE 6 doesn't. Well, at least no surprises. So fire up the former browsers if you wish to see some of the live examples (others are simulated).
