Ask HN: Who Invented CSS?
Google suggests a person who suggested the idea, who was the first to implement it at a decent scale? iirc, IE5 for Mac's Tasman engine (1999/2000) was the first to showed what could be done w/ CSS when it's properly supported. Edit: And yeah, it was Håkon Wium Lie who wrote the first draft, I think? I admit I'm horrible at CSS really design in general. But the inventor was and had to be a sadist It's not that bad. What made is worse is that every browser is a little bit different and it needed to support mobile devices over time. Could you point out specifically what aspects of CSS cause unnecessary pain?
