Re: Browser compliance

[Nathan Andelin <nandelin@xxxxxxxxx>]

I had to look up the definition of "transpiler" in order to get a feel for
where you were coming from. Don't feel too badly about finding a function
that isn't supported in IE10. It takes effort to achieve browser
compatibility for both CSS and JavaScript. It's not easy at first, but it
does get easier as you begin to build out your CSS and JavaScript
framework. After a while you get a feel for what works consistently across
the major browsers.

Someone is probably thinking, just get one of many popular CSS and
JavaScript frameworks and solve your problem that way. I think that would
be shallow advice. I think it is better to learn the nuances of CSS and
JavaScript yourself.
