This is the first in - what I hope will be - a series of articles on the useful information I received from visiting the Fronteers 2011 conference in Amsterdam last October. Like my articles of last year's conference, I will not give a talk-by-talk summary, but rather pick out the subjects that interest me most and expand on those subjects, while referring to the original talks to give credits due.
Before I dive into some spectacular features of CSS3, let me say something about CSS attributes.
You can ask anyone that I used to be quite sceptical on building sites that depend on the use of JavaScript. Time has not stood still however.
