They should be all supported. What I got: Safari 2.0 (v412) supports all expect for (Text-decoration: blink). Steps to reproduce: 1) Open attached filed called "test_blink.html" in Safari 2.0 (v412) under 10.4.1(8B15). 2) The first sentence uses { text-decoration: blink } put Safari doesn't apply this rule. Note: Firefox 1.0.4 will render this paragraph correctly with { text-decoration: blink } 10759 1 2112 c.petersen87 2005-06-05 15:38:25 -0700 Created attachment 2112 Testcase that contains { text-decoration: blink } 10760 2 2113 c.petersen87 2005-06-05 15:42:42 -0700 Created attachment 2113 Improved test case that uses { text-decoration: blink } 10801 3 c.petersen87 2005-06-07 11:15:34 -0700 Apple Bug : <rdar://problem/4141171> 11245 4 hyatt 2005-06-09 21:43:21 -0700 The CSS specification says that user agents are free to ignore blink. We should think carefully about whether or not we actually want to implement this. 12806 5 sullivan 2005-06-21 11:22:33 -0700 We made a deliberate decision not to implement blink, though if there were compelling evidence that we should implement it our minds could be changed. 14641 6 jens.ayton 2005-07-14 04:31:50 -0700 A possible solution would be to allow blink if marked !important. Not that I’m a fan… 18726 7 joost 2005-09-04 23:00:28 -0700 IMHO, this should be a wontfix. Not many people will bother not having blink, and the ones who do probably won't even notice :) 26805 8 eric 2005-12-27 14:09:37 -0800 I would agree. I don't think we ever have plans to support blink. Thanks for the bug. 87818 9 hiroykam 2008-08-04 18:49:39 -0700 WebKit is also used on Android as its one of component. If Android is adopted as one of the platform of Japanese carrier, The WebView class (which is based on WebKit technology) will be used to create html mail app (viewer). In Japan, as the greeting mail, we often use blinking string. Then the blinking string is realized by <blink> tag. Therefore, if it is concluded as "WONTFIX", it becomes the restriction for Android platform. So, please reconsinder to support <blink> tag on Webkit!!! 122325 10 laurie 2009-05-21 05:04:02 -0700 You should definitely re-consider this. There are perfectly legitimate uses for blinking text, and I may have to re-consider using a Webkit based browser for our application if you will not implement a perfectly reasonable CSS property. Which would be a shame because Webkit is the only browser that doesn't leak memory like a sieve in our use case. See http://www.flickr.com/photos/lozzd/3210502566/ The "CRITICAL" and "DOWN" (not displayed in the picture) on this monitoring system display blinks to attract attention. Using a Webkit based browser, it is static. 2112 2005-06-05 15:38:25 -0700 2005-06-05 15:41:04 -0700 Testcase that contains { text-decoration: blink } test_blink.html text/html 855 c.petersen87 PCFET0NUWVBFIEhUTUwgUFVCTElDICItLy9XM0MvL0RURCBIVE1MIDQuMDEgVHJhbnNpdGlvbmFs Ly9FTiINICAgICAgICAiaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvVFIvMTk5OS9SRUMtaHRtbDQwMS0xOTk5 MTIyNC9sb29zZS5kdGQiPg08aHRtbD4NPGhlYWQ+DQk8dGl0bGU+VW50aXRsZWQ8L3RpdGxlPg08 c3R5bGUgdHlwZT0idGV4dC9jc3MiPg0jb25lIHsgdGV4dC1kZWNvcmF0aW9uOiBibGluayB9DSN0 d28geyB0ZXh0LWRlY29yYXRpb246IHVuZGVybGluZSB9DSN0aHJlZSB7IHRleHQtZGVjb3JhdGlv bjogb3ZlcmxpbmUgfQ0jZm91ciB7IHRleHQtZGVjb3JhdGlvbjogbGluZS10aHJvdWdoIH0NI2Zp dmUgeyB0ZXh0LWRlY29yYXRpb246IG5vbmUgfQ08L3N0eWxlPg08L2hlYWQ+DTwvaGVhZD4NPHAg aWQ9Im9uZSI+VGhpcyBwYXJhZ3JhcGggc2hvdWxkIGJsaW5rIHNpbmNlIGl0IHVzZXMgdGV4dC1k ZWNvcmF0aW9uOiBibGluazwvcD4gDTxwIGlkPSJ0d28iPlRoaXMgcGFyYWdyYXBoIHNob3VsZCBi bGluayBzaW5jZSBpdCB1c2VzIHRleHQtZGVjb3JhdGlvbjogdW5kZXJsaW5lPC9wPiANPHAgaWQ9 InRocmVlIj5UaGlzIHBhcmFncmFwaCBzaG91bGQgYmxpbmsgc2luY2UgaXQgdXNlcyB0ZXh0LWRl Y29yYXRpb246IG92ZXJsaW5lPC9wPiANPHAgaWQ9ImZvdXIiPlRoaXMgcGFyYWdyYXBoIHNob3Vs ZCBibGluayBzaW5jZSBpdCB1c2VzIHRleHQtZGVjb3JhdGlvbjogbGluZS10aHJvdWdoPC9wPiAN PHAgaWQ9ImZpdmUiPlRoaXMgcGFyYWdyYXBoIHNob3VsZCBibGluayBzaW5jZSBpdCB1c2VzIHRl eHQtZGVjb3JhdGlvbjogbm9uZTwvcD4gDTwvYm9keT4NPC9odG1sPg08L2JvZHk+DTwvaHRtbD4N 2113 2005-06-05 15:42:42 -0700 2005-06-05 15:42:42 -0700 Improved test case that uses { text-decoration: blink } test_blink.html text/html 767 c.petersen87 PCFET0NUWVBFIEhUTUwgUFVCTElDICItLy9XM0MvL0RURCBIVE1MIDQuMDEgVHJhbnNpdGlvbmFs Ly9FTiINICAgICAgICAiaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvVFIvMTk5OS9SRUMtaHRtbDQwMS0xOTk5 MTIyNC9sb29zZS5kdGQiPg08aHRtbD4NPGhlYWQ+DQk8dGl0bGU+VW50aXRsZWQ8L3RpdGxlPg08 c3R5bGUgdHlwZT0idGV4dC9jc3MiPg0jb25lIHsgdGV4dC1kZWNvcmF0aW9uOiBibGluayB9DSN0 d28geyB0ZXh0LWRlY29yYXRpb246IHVuZGVybGluZSB9DSN0aHJlZSB7IHRleHQtZGVjb3JhdGlv bjogb3ZlcmxpbmUgfQ0jZm91ciB7IHRleHQtZGVjb3JhdGlvbjogbGluZS10aHJvdWdoIH0NI2Zp dmUgeyB0ZXh0LWRlY29yYXRpb246IG5vbmUgfQ08L3N0eWxlPg08L2hlYWQ+DTwvaGVhZD4NPHAg aWQ9Im9uZSI+VGhpcyBwYXJhZ3JhcGggc2hvdWxkIGJsaW5rIHNpbmNlIGl0IHVzZXMgdGV4dC1k ZWNvcmF0aW9uOiBibGluazwvcD4gDTxwIGlkPSJ0d28iPlRoaXMgcGFyYWdyYXBoIHVzZXMgdGV4 dC1kZWNvcmF0aW9uOiB1bmRlcmxpbmU8L3A+IA08cCBpZD0idGhyZWUiPlRoaXMgcGFyYWdyYXBo IHVzZXMgdGV4dC1kZWNvcmF0aW9uOiBvdmVybGluZTwvcD4gDTxwIGlkPSJmb3VyIj5UaGlzIHBh cmFncmFwaCB1c2VzIHRleHQtZGVjb3JhdGlvbjogbGluZS10aHJvdWdoPC9wPiANPHAgaWQ9ImZp dmUiPlRoaXMgcGFyYWdyYXBoIHVzZXMgdGV4dC1kZWNvcmF0aW9uOiBub25lPC9wPiANPC9ib2R5 Pg08L2h0bWw+DTwvYm9keT4NPC9odG1sPg0=
