Safari CSS Submit Button

Posted by David Bushell

A CSS3 tutorial by Caleb Ogden on advanced button styling, using the Apple OSX button style present in software like Safari.

The shading is all done through the box-shadow, and gradient properties, using three separate shadows and a background gradient to create the lighting effect.

A lot of advanced CSS tutorials often delve into ridiculous practices like complex illustrations; stuff that CSS was never intended for. Caleb's tutorial here, on the other hand, is an excellent and practical demostration of what CSS can be used for. Very impressive!
