-ms-linear-gradient can be removed from Gradient wizard

Post by kfury77 »

With WeBuilder if you create a gradient it helpfully crates the browser prefixed versions.

Please remove the "-ms-linear-gradient" one though - there is no need for it at all. No shipping stable version of IE ever required that. IE10 supports the unprefixed version.

For IE9 and lower you could consider adding the old proprietary 'filter' method to the wizard output:
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Gradient(startColorStr="#ff0000", endColorStr="#0000ff");

Yes, we will remove that. At the time there was IE10 preview version I think that supported the -ms- prefix.

Old IE filters are too terrible and glitchy to use anywhere :)
