Unfortunately, neither Netscape Navigator 4.0 nor
Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 fully supports CSS Level 1. Of the earlier browsers, only Internet Explorer 3.0
supports a limited set of the CSS Level 1 features: font attributes, indents, and color. However, this support is
rendered differently in Internet Explorer 3.0 and 4.0. Netscape Navigator 3.0 does not support any of the
features of CSS Level 1. On the brighter side, Netscape Navigator 6.2 shows an almost complete compliance
of CSS 1 and quite a lot of CSS 2, the current version of Internet Explorer (6.0) is almost as complete, and
the current version of Safari, while only at 2.2, supports all of CSS 1, almost all of CSS 2, and even boasts
some CSS 3 support.
Automatically created styles
The world of CSS can be overwhelming to the novice designer: How do you even begin to master this complex
set of rules and concepts? Dreamweaver offers many routes to explore CSS, but perhaps the easiest
entry is through the Property inspector. Set a font face, font size, or color on any bit of text and
Dreamweaver applies your formatting as a new style, automatically created and stored internally. The new
style is then added to the list of available styles, right in the Property inspector.
Not only does Dreamweaver automatically create styles, it does so in an intelligent fashion that prevents
duplicate styles.
