Contenu de la révision

CSS3 est la toute dernière évolution du langage css et vise à étendre CSS2.1. Il apporte beaucoup de nouveautés attendues, comme les angles arrondis, les ombres, les dégradés , les transitions ou animations, aussi bien que de nouvelles mise en page comme le multi-colonnes, les boîtes flexibles ou les mises en pages en grilles. Les parties expérimentales ont des préfixes propriétaires et devraient soit être évitées dans les environnements de productions, soit utilisées avec beaucoup de prudence à la fois car leurs syntaxes et sémantiques peuvent ête amenées à être modifiés dans l'avenir.

Les modules et le processus de standardisation

Il a fallu 9 ans (d'août 2002 à juin 2011) au CSS niveau 2, pour atteindre le statut de "Recommandation". Ceci était dû au fait que quelques fonctionnalités secondaires ralentissaient toute la spécification. Dans l'objectif d'accélérer la standardisation de fonctionnalités non problématiques, Le CSS Working Group du W3C, dans une decision connue sous le nom de la doctrine Beijing, a divisé le CSS en petits composants appelées modules. Chacun de ces modules est désormais une partie indépendante du langage et progresse vers la standardisation à son propre rythme. Pendant que certains modules sont déjà des Recommandations du W3C, d'autres sont encore aux étapes initiales de Brouillons de Travail (Working Drafts). Les nouveaux modules sont aussi ajoutés lorsque de nouveaux besoins sont identifiés.

Officiellement, il n'y as pas de standard CSS3 en tant que tel. Chaque module est normalisé indépendamment, la norme CSS se base sur CSS2.1 modifié et améliorée par les modules achevés, pas nécessairement tous avec le même numéro de version. A des instants donnés, un aperçu de la norme CSS peut être définie, listant le CSS2.1 et les modules matures.

Le consortium W3 publie périodiquement ces aperçus, comme en 2007 ou 2010.

Jusqu'à aujourd'hui, aucun module ayant un niveau supérieur à celui du niveau 3 n'est standardisé, mais cela changera dans le futur. Certains modules, comme les Selecteurs 4 ou les Bordures et arrière-plan CSS (CSS Borders) de niveau 4 sont déjà au stade de Brouillon de l'Editeur (Editor's Draft), même s'il n'ont pas encore atteint le premier statut publié de Brouillon de Travail (Working Draft).

Statuts des modules CSS

Les modules stables

Quelques modules CSS sont déjà assez stables et ont atteint l'un des trois niveaux de commendation du CSSWG : Candidate Recommendation, Proposed Recommendation or Recommendation. These can be used without prefixed and are pretty stable, though a few features can still be dropped at the Candidate Recommendation stage.

These modules extend and amend the CSS2.1 specification which build the core of the specification. Together with it, they are the current snapshot of the CSS specification.

{{ SpecName("CSS3 Colors", "", "") }} {{ Spec2("CSS3 Colors") }} depuis le 7 Juin 2011

Ajout de la propriétée {{ cssxref("opacity") }}, et des fonctions hsl(), hsla(), rgba() et rgb() pour créer des valeurs {{cssxref("<color>")}}. Il définit aussi le mot clé currentColor comme une couleur valide.

La couleur transparent est maintenant une vrai couleur (grâce au support du channel alpha) et est maintenant un alias de rgba(0,0,0,0.0) .

It deprecates the system-color keywords that shouldn't be used in a production environment anymore.

{{ SpecName("CSS3 Selectors", "", "") }} {{ Spec2("CSS3 Selectors") }} depuis le 29 September 2011

Adds:

Substring matching attribute selectors, E[attribute^="value"] , E[attribute$="value"] , E[attribute*="value"] .
New pseudo-classes: {{ cssxref(":target") }}, {{ cssxref(":enabled") }} and {{ cssxref(":disabled") }}, {{ cssxref(":checked") }}, {{ cssxref(":indeterminate") }}, {{ cssxref(":root") }}, {{ cssxref(":nth-child") }} and {{ cssxref(":nth-last-child") }}, {{ cssxref(":nth-of-type") }} and {{ cssxref(":nth-last-of-type") }}, {{ cssxref(":last-child") }}, {{ cssxref(":first-of-type") }} and {{ cssxref(":last-of-type") }}, {{ cssxref(":only-child") }} and {{ cssxref(":only-of-type") }},{{ cssxref(":empty") }}, and {{ cssxref(":not") }}.
Pseudo-elements are now characterized by two colons rather then one: :after becomes {{ cssxref("::after") }}, :before becomes {{ cssxref("::before") }}, :first-letter becomes {{ cssxref("::first-letter") }}, and :first-line becomes {{ cssxref("::first-line") }}.
The new general sibling combinator ( h1~pre ).

The next iteration of the Selectors specification is already in progress, though it still hasn't reached the First Public Working Draft stage.

{{ SpecName("CSS3 Namespaces", "", "") }}	{{ Spec2("CSS3 Namespaces") }} since September 29th, 2011
Adds the support for the XML Namespaces by defining the notion of CSS qualified name , using the ' `\|` ' syntax and adding the {{ cssxref("@namespace") }} CSS at-rule.

{{ SpecName("CSS3 Media Queries", "", "") }} {{ Spec2("CSS3 Media Queries") }} since June 19th, 2012

Extends the former media type ( print, screen, … ) to a full language allowing queries on the device media capabilities like only screen and (color) .

Media queries are not only used in CSS document but also in some attributes of HTML Elements, like the {{ htmlattrxref("media","link") }} attribute of the {{ HTMLElement("link") }} element.

The next iteration of this specification is in the work, allowing to tailor a Web site regarding the input methods available on the user agent, with new media features like hover or pointer. Detection of EcmaScript support, using the script media features is also proposed.

Support for curved border corners, with the CSS {{ cssxref("border-radius") }}, {{ cssxref("border-top-left-radius") }}, {{ cssxref("border-top-right-radius") }}, {{ cssxref("border-bottom-left-radius") }}, and {{ cssxref("border-bottom-right-radius") }} properties.

Support for shadows of the element with the CSS {{ cssxref("box-shadow") }} property.

The CSS4 iteration of the Backgrounds and Borders specification is already in progress, though it still hasn't reached the First Public Working Draft stage, it plans to add the ability to clip a border (with the CSS {{ cssxref("border-clip") }}, {{ cssxref("border-clip-top") }}, {{ cssxref("border-clip-right") }}, {{ cssxref("border-clip-bottom") }}, and {{ cssxref("border-clip-left") }} properties) or to control the shape of the border in a corner (using the CSS {{ cssxref("border-corner-shape") }} property).

{{ SpecName("CSS3 Multicol", "", "") }}

Support for linear-gradient(), repeating-linear-gradient(), radial-gradient() and repeating-radial-gradient().
The ability to define how a replaced element should fit in its element, using the CSS {{ cssxref("object-fit") }} property.
At risk : due to insufficient browser support, standardization of the {{ cssxref("object-fit") }} and property may be postponed to the next iteration of this module .

Normative value to the definition of {{cssxref("<color>")}}, {{cssxref("<image>")}}, and {{ cssxref("<position>") }}.
Definition for the {{ cssxref("calc", "calc()") }}, {{ cssxref("attr", "attr()")}}, and toggle() functional notations.
