Re: [e4-dev] CSS now supports gradients

Yup, here's a nice little example:
http://ajaxian.com/archives/css-gradients-in-action

It'd be cool to do such gradients in
Eclipse :)

On a minor note, I like the syntax of
identifying a named tuplet (-webkit-gradient(blah,
blah, blah) of information versus
our current approach of re-interpreting the value list.

WebKit now supports gradients as well:

http://webkit.org/blog/175/introducing-css-gradients/

Some of the WebKit devs are also w3c css standards authors,
so if you had to bet on a syntax that will likely be standard some day
....

The CSS support now supports gradients (yeah!). 
For CTabFolder, it uses the CTabFolder specific gradient support.
For other widgets, it draws the gradient. 

A few notes: 

1) The original TK-UI project favors the syntax: 
        background-color: gradient,
               rgb(140,140,140),
               rgb(48,48,48),
               100%;

But the CSS support is quite happy to not need the word "gradient"
and to not need the commas. The syntax above does work too though. TBD.

2) It's legal to not specify any percents for the gradient ranges, in which
case default ranges are calculated based on equidistance between the colors.
