Firefox on Mac OSX about framer HOT 10 CLOSED

Seems like this could be used as a polyfill: https://gist.github.com/394537

from framer.

This should be doable, but it's not really important to me because Framer is intended as a prototyping tool for Webkit. So I'm going to focus on other things but pull requests are always welcome.

I think you should at least to tell the users explictly that firefox is not supported, instead of leaving the user much frustrated with a blank page.

Fair point. I'll add some warning for now that points to this thread :-)

I hacked a bit on a n experiment to use the CSSMatrix polyfill tonight:

It's a first step towards cross-browser support, but there are a bunch of other webkit-isms that would need to be generalized out or polyfilled.

I have a project that attempts to polyfill CSSMatrix. In most cases, it is a drop-in replacement for WebKitCSSMatrix.

Take a look at the open issues, but it should work node.js and many versions of Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Opera. I haven't tested it in any versions of IE but "it's only Math". As I say in issue #2, I hope to soon have a browserling or other badge showing test results on various browsers.

My hope/plan for this weekend is to make the changes required to make Framer support non-WebKit browsers. I had a look around the source (which is how I found out about this ticket :) ) and (famous last words) it seems pretty straight forward.

from framer.

Sounds good to me. I'd like to say again though that supporting more browsers is not one of my primary goals. But people seem to want it, so I'll pull it in on the conditions that 1) there are no downsides/side effects and 2) the added code size is not crazy compared to the rest of the code.

from framer.

Great.

I'll make sure all existing tests continue to pass. If possible, I'll do a client-side check for WebKitCSSMatrix and only load XCSSMatrix if it's missing. Not sure if it is, but I'll give it a shot.

FYI landed @jfsiii's patch in UILayer at rsms/uilayer@69caece

This has been a while ago, and Firefox has decided to implement WebKitCSSMatrix. It already works in the Devoper preview, and is expected to land in 48. I'm closing this issue for now, as we're not expected to put any work into Firefox support until this lands in their stable.
