Gradient color

I don't think it's in CSS's power to make a gradient. At least, not without the usage of an image though. There was some kind of Microsoft filter for that, but (considering it's Microsoft's idea, not a W3C standart) it's avaiable only for IE.There might be a JavaScript for this though. I don't know.

Hi,  Is there anyway that I could use a gradient color from using this code?<code>div.container{width:100%;margin:0px;border:1px solid #CCCCCC; /*this isnt a gradient color, how do I replace this*/line-height:120%;}</code>

I'm afraid the CSS has no power to make a gradient. Like boen_robot says you can make a gradient but only using image as a repeated background.Here's a CSS editor you can use: Top Style LiteYou can use: .h_gradient {background-image: http://www.domain.com/image.jpg;background-repeat: repeat-x;}for horizontal gradient or.v_gradient {background-image: http://www.domain.com/image.jpg;background-repeat: repeat-y;}for vertical gradientGo to this page and find how you can make gradient using JavaScript and DHTMLGood luck :)

i was just wandering about this, actually. i guess i'll just use the graphical way out. any clue if this could be in a future version of CSS, though?

I don't think so. At least not in CSS3 I think. I'm not sure though.

This is definitly a lengthy work around, just take a look at ithttp://www.designdetector.com/2005/09/css-gradients-demo.php

Holy Stuff that's some crazy coding! that guy is really inventive. I have to say, a gradient background is probably one of the only cases in which I would rather use an image than the code... it might actually take less space and bandwidth!
