I hope you're interested in what I can only describe as esoteric table rubbish that is tinged with legacy web development and which you likely don't need to know anything about, because that is what I'm serving up in my latest article. Enjoy? vale.rocks/posts/table-...

Safari 27.2 introduces #css. The ::field-content pseudo-element gives you the ability to style the text of the selected option that’s displayed on the page, without needing the <selectedcontent> element.

CSS-Tricks has a new owner! Yes, I've got the keys to the castle, so to speak. And, even after 12 years of working on the site, I'll admit I'm a little overwhelmed and nervous about that. https://css-tricks.com/css-tricks-has-a-new-owner/

JPEG XL is newly available in all major engines, but how does it stack up against other formats?

Looks like Firefox 159 will have #CSS Scroll-driven animations in tomorrow’s update ❤️

Not every website needs an application stack. For content-focused sites, I still prefer the speed, simplicity, and control of static pages. Modern does not have to mean complicated. ronaldsvilcins.com/2026/08/29/w...

Before writing form validation and input behaviour from scratch, see what HTML already offers. Native controls cover more useful functionality than many developers realise. ronaldsvilcins.com/2026/08/21/h...

I wish I'd realized when recording this that it would come out on the 10-year anniversary of my channel, but even if I didn't mention it, I guess it's still pretty fitting 😅 (plus it was posted to my second channel anyway, lol)

I looked into the company, and it's real. This is literally the service they sell. I'm on the fence between telling them how much of an invasion of privacy this is, or just marking spam. They won't listen anyway. The more I think of it, the more I feel like calling out the business in a video....

It’s been a long process but now, masonry layouts have an actual CSS approach, so Saleh Mubashar has put together a really useful guide on how it works, how we got here and what’s next.

Chrome 157 now supports icon-only mode for the <camera> and <microphone> elements, which hides the text label (but retains the accessible name) Demo link 👇

a critical PHP vulnerability may take websites down today. Admins are preparing for emergency patches, with estimates suggesting that more than 1.3 million internet-connected hosts are likely affected www.theverge.com/tech/1015257...

✍️ Just published a new post about my most-anticipated CSS proposals from Interop 2027! If you’re not familiar, the Interop project is a collaboration between browsers to pick shared focus areas. There’s *so much* good stuff this year, it was hard to pick just 10!

Things I hope to push forward at TPAC: - Declarative fragment / client side include - declarative skeleton/shell - CSS navigation matching - parser/patch reflection in mutation observers - responsive image improvements - connection allowlists - focusreset - CSS module imports Gonna be interesting!

The Decoherence Trap

The `unload` event no longer fires in Chrome by default! Since the advent of the mobile web this has become increasingly unreliable and we think that's a footgun for devs who might think it works. We've spent the last 3 years carefully removing it from Chrome. developer.chrome.com/blog/unload-...

Anyone else who thinks that the at-private feature is unintuitive? github.com/w3c/csswg-dr... Specifically that anything in `at-private {}` isn't scoped to that rule, but rather to a style rule ancestor of that rule.
