Designing and Crafting Core Pages Part II
Applying CSS Hacks
As any designer beginning to work with CSS knows, not all browsers are created equally. In fact, browsers
vary wildly in their CSS support. To achieve cross-browser compatibility with CSS, designers have
resorted to using what are referred to as CSS hacks. A CSS hack is the use of CSS code in an unintended fashion
to make CSS elements unavailable to certain browsers. In other words, a CSS hack acts as a filter.
Dreamweaver includes two of the most common hacks that allow you to hide CSS from two of the most problematic
browsers: Netscape 4.x and Internet Explorer 5 for Mac. Both hacks are only available from within
Code view through the context menu; commands for applying and removing each hack are included.
To hide a CSS rule from Netscape 4.x, use the Ciao hack.
