I'm wanting to know if there is anyway I can see the css support for webkit browsers? I've had a look at
Caniuse and I've had a look
at PPK's website. I'm really after something what Microsoft have done for IE.
If there is anything out there can you post it please?

WebKit seems to be poorly documented, with no official summary or reference published. Here are some resources:
Safari CSS Reference by Apple; not very detailed
MDN CSS Reference, extensive but not complete summary of support to CSS in different browsers, including a separate page of WebKit extensions
CSS666, a summary of CSS support in browsers, compact, but has some info not present at MDN
Sitepoint CSS Reference, yet another summary of CSS support
Webkit CSS properties, compilation of -webkit- properties

CSS doesn't support constants, particularly for colors, which makes css color maintenance a real pain.
Before I roll my own solution, are there any good libraries that work with tomcat that support the concept of CSS constants?
Main options:
Newest is actual variables in the browser - http://css3.bradshawenterprises.com/blog/css-variables/ though support is (currently) poor. Will probably improve through 2013.
Mainstream is "Sass" - http://sass-lang.com/ - "Sass makes CSS fun again. Sass is an extension of CSS3, adding nested rules, variables, mixins, selector inheritance, and more. It’s translated to well-formatted, standard CSS using the command line tool or a web-framework plugin."
Sass variable: $blue: #3bbfce;
Also, very popular, "LESS" - http://lesscss.org/ - "LESS extends CSS with dynamic behavior such as variables, mixins, operations and functions.
LESS runs on both the server-side (with Node.js and Rhino) or client-side (modern browsers only)."
LESS variable: #color: #4D926F;
Both Sass and Less compile into css.

Are vendor specific style prefixes needed any more on most common CSS3 properties? [closed]

I guess most of us are used to write common CSS3 properties with vendor specific prefixes to support all browsers, so it's not uncommon to see something like this:
border-radius: 6px;
-moz-border-radius: 6px;
-webkit-border-radius: 6px;
-o-border-radius: 6px;
I recently noticed that on most common properties the prefix is not required any more. And given the rapid update cycle of current browsers, I started to think about the necessity of keeping the prefixes - e.g. there probably are not many versions of Chrome still in the wild that do not support the native border-radius syntax.
Also I've always thought of these kind of properties as just eye candy, so I don't think there would be any problem about dropping support for the now obsolete Firefox 3.* and the likes in this regard.
So, is it safe to drop the prefixes on most common properties, namely border-radius and box-shadow?

I have since the beginning been annoyed with the compatibility of CSS. Whats the best practice for coding css, that works with the most common platforms...
( IE7+, Firefox, Safari, Chrome AND iPad / iPhone, Blacberry, Android)
Are there any list to be found anywhere with known differences ?
Thanks!
Jakob
I often use CSS reference on http://www3.w3schools.com/cssref/default.asp - for each css element, they give the compatibility list of various browsers and also unique behaviour of some, if applicable.
For example, have a look at http://www3.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_class_display.asp for display property. It shows that the property is supported in all browser, and then gives details of specifics of IE:
The values "inline-table", "run-in", "table", "table-caption",
"table-cell", "table-column", "table-column-group", "table-row",
"table-row-group", and "inherit" is not supported in IE7 and earlier.
IE8 requires a !DOCTYPE. IE9 supports the values.
Similar description is provided for all other CSS elements. I'm not sure if it will address all of your issues, but it certainly is a very good resource.

i have taken over a website that has tons of css files and lots of inline css as well. Is there any tool that can show me a visualization of how this stuff is organized as i have a strong feeling that. Many pages are bringing in more css than necessary
Also, i want to remove all the inline formatting as well into css files. Is there any refactoring tool that does even this by itself?
IE8 dev tools can show you all CSS inheritance tree (including files where this particular style is defined in)
Firefox has tons of plugins that can do the same.
This is not a direct answer to your question - I don't know of a true refactoring tool for CSS. One that I've used to create and preview CSS easily is TopStyle - I'm on v3.5 Pro, and they've got v4 out now. There may be better or less expensive alternatives out there; I'm not an expert.
You might also want to check out Firebug: http://getfirebug.com/
Dreamweaver, it can convert inline css to external css file.
also it can view all css files and its rules in a outline view, and you can easily rename all of it.
The Dust-Me Selectors Firefox extension could help you find CSS that isn't used at all, it's a good first step.

I've been using Nicole Sullivan's "Object Oriented" CSS grid for a while now (hate the term, though) and have found it to be quite good. However, as I get more experience with grids, I'm noticing a lot of other frameworks out there; in particular the 960 Grid System and the Yahoo! UI Library.
I'm looking for other peoples' experiences with these alternatives (or others) so I can make a more well-founded decision on whether to change or not.
I think Blueprint is the best.
Also review comments posted at: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/589184/help-me-choose-a-css-framework-960-vs-blueprint-vs
I found the noupe site has great comparisons for CSS frameworks and helped me choose: http://www.noupe.com/css/5-popular-css-frameworks-tutorials-tools-for-getting-started.html
If you are using rails framework, you should consider using compass which is layer over these frameworks (As suggested by Alan below).
I would recommend Blueprint used from within Compass. Compass reduces redundant CSS styles and has variables and classes. Apart from that, I have found Blueprint to be easy to use.
What about the twitter bootstrap framework. It good for me
