A Graceful Fallback for SVGs in Old IE

There are plenty of good reasons to use SVGs instead of rasterized images. The benefits include better image quality, image flexibility, and smaller file size. But one obstacle you might still face is browser support. SVGs are supported by all modern browsers except IE8 and below.

In the following sections I’ll outline how you can handle this in a graceful way by falling back to PNGs for older…

Scroll-Then-Fix Content

A reader sent me in a GIF showing off a cool effect they saw on Google on mobile. (Presumably the homepage you see when you launch Chrome on Android?) There is a search input in the middle of the page that scrolls with the page, but as it’s about to scroll off the page, it becomes affixed to the header. Let’s cover that, because, you know…

Getting Started with CSS Shapes

I just watched Jen Simmons give a talk Modern Layouts: Getting Out Of Our Ruts and she had some great examples of how easy CSS shapes are to use, even with safe progressive enhancement.

I’m sure I did…

Build Web Layouts Easily with Susy

I’ve been coming around to the idea of using Susy (a Sass add-on for grids) lately. I like the idea of grids-on-demand, rather than a strict framework (no matter how simple). We even added supportto CodePen. Last week I ran into Eric Suzanne, the creator of Susy, and I told him Zell Liew was working on a guest post for this site. He was “Oh, Zell! Yeah he’s awesome, he’s like the unofficial…

Don’t use `picture` (most of the time)

Jason Grigsby:

Unless you’re solving for art direction, you don’t need to the element. In fact, you’re likely doing your users a disservice by using the <picture> element.

I’d wager that the majority of “responsive images” use is serving appropriately sizedimages for the situation. The situation = the size the image will be displayed at, screen pixel density, and bandwidth. That’s exactly what
