To make things easier, CSS is getting a new selector: The Class Prefix Selector ( .prefix-\* ). ## [The Case for Tri-State Dark Mode Toggles](https://www.bram.us/2026/08/18/the-case-for-tri-state-dark-mode-toggles/) _2026-08-18 · Bramus! · Bram.us_ Adding a Dark Mode toggle to your website is a nice touch that many users appreciate. When implementing one, the default instinct for many developers is to reach for a simple binary switch: Light on one side, Dark on the other.

Instead, we should all be… ## [Unlock Immediate Diagonal Scrolling with CSS scroll-axis-lock: none](https://www.bram.us/2026/08/09/unlock-diagonal-scrolling-with-css-scroll-axis-lock-none/) _2026-08-09 · Bramus! · Bram.us_ When you scroll a 2D scroller on a website, the browser does a lot of work behind the scenes to keep you on track. One of the things it typically does is scroll axis-locking (aka “railing”) , ignoring some minor scroll deltas in the non-main scrolling axis. While helpful most of the times, this sometimes can get in the way such as in map or image zoom interfaces. With the new CSS scroll-axis-lock… [Listen](https://www.bram.us/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/scroll-axis-lock-example.mp4) ## [MDN Traffic Browser](https://www.bram.us/2026/08/03/mdn-traffic-browser/) _2026-08-03 · Bramus! · Bram.us_ TIL: MDN exposes up-to-date page view data through https://popularities.mdn.mozilla.net/current.csv .

Together with Noam Rosenthal and David Baron I’ve been working on it for the past few months. After an initial introduction at the CSS Working Group back in January, and a quick feedback session at CSS Day in June, we think we have something that is ready… [Listen](https://www.bram.us/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/styling-the-navigation.mp4) ## [What’s new in Web UI (Google I/O 2026)](https://www.bram.us/2026/07/01/whats-new-in-web-ui-google-i-o-2026/) _2026-07-01 · Bramus! · Bram.us_ Mid May, at this year’s Google I/O, Una and I gave a talk “What’s new in Web UI” live at Shoreline in the Chrome tent. ## [Youth Pastors in the News – June 2026](https://adammclane.com/2026/06/youth-pastors-in-the-news-june-2026/) _2026-06-26 · Adam McLane · Adam McLane_ The murder occurred in 2006.

In one of the examples he used attr() to set view-transition-name values — a technique I covered in my article on advanced attr() function .

You’d think a simple position: sticky with top: 0 and left: 0 would be enough, but the reality was that only one of both would stick.
