eTianbun Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 They are -prefixes-. Some browsers that do not support the new css3 property (box-shadow), uses it. e.g: -moz-box-shadow: h-pos v-pos blur colour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowMage Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 As eTianbun stated, they are [vendor] prefixes for CSS properties. Browser vendors use these prefixes to provide early support for new or proprietary CSS properties, such as many of the CSS 3 properties, until those properties become standardized. Since these properties are not standardized, their syntax or rendering rules are subject to change frequently. When they become standard, browser vendors will drop the prefix and just use the regular syntax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
