Interesting that alleged supporters of freedom and choice choose to limit both by blatantly preventing the later. I've never used a blink tag, but that's not to say I favor eliminating the option to do so. I reserve the right be the sole arbiter of what I consider tacky, thank you very much. ;)

It was never a standard and since about 1998 it was only supported in Netscape and Mozilla--unless it was supported in Konqueror or Galeon.

Good point. I will check Konqueror when I get home.

Quoting:


@keyframes blink { to { visibility: hidden; } }

blink { animation: blink 1s steps(5, start) infinite; }


You're welcome >:]
