I also did the American flag in CSS to celebrate the 4th. You check it out at: http://christopherschmitt.com/2008/07/03/american-flag-in-css/

Great article, and a great source of inspiration.

Martin: Don’t worry about it, it may not be what CSS is for, but it shows what CSS can do, and its a great example of creative thinking.

I wonder if the stars issue is a Windows thing. They display just fine in FF3, FF2, Safari 3.1 and Opera 9.5 on Mac OS 10.4

Happy 4th of July!

Rob, thanks!

Martin: Agreed… this isn’t what CSS is supposed to be used for. Instead, it’s just having a little fun. But don’t worry: the text I’ve hidden inside the flag will still show up in search engines, and will be visible to those with visual impairment. So they’ll get ~something~ out of it. :)

Tim, V1: That seems to happen occasionally for some people. Like I said in the tutorial, if you’re looking for greater compatibility (albeit with less accuracy), I’d suggest using asterisks instead of the stars.

Martin, you need a sense of humour transplant !

However…for me, in FF3 the stars don’t look like stars, more like space invaders. Similar in IE7 (sort of inverted ‘U’).

I can’t see the point!
Css is not for creating graphic elements but for applying style to content and layout.
What kind of information will a search engine get from your flag? And what about someone with visual impairment?
