Nicolas Gallagher 99b187d1a2 Revert addition of input placeholder rules

The `:moz-placeholder` rule doesn't have the desired effect because any
subsequent rule with higher specificity will result in the Firefox bug
resurfacing. There is no way to ensure that Firefox doesn't change the
color of the placeholder text. Example: https://tinker.io/e34a2

The `:focus::webkit-input-placeholder` normalization is being removed
because the current Chrome / Safari on Lion OSX behaviour is allowed in
the spec, Firefox is set to implement the same behaviour, and other
browsers may follow suit for usability reasons.

Some browser differences like these - low importance and in flux - can
be allowed to evolve and settle before assessing whether or not they
need or merit normalization.

normalize.css

Normalize.css is a customisable CSS file that makes browsers render all elements more consistently and in line with modern standards. We researched the differences between default browser styles in order to precisely target only the styles that need normalizing.

Check out the demo

What does it do?

  • Preserves useful defaults, unlike many CSS resets.
  • Normalizes styles for a wide range of elements.
  • Corrects bugs and common browser inconsistencies.
  • Improves usability with subtle improvements.
  • Explains what code does using detailed comments.

How to use it

Normalize.css is intended to be used as an alternative to CSS resets.

It is suggested that you read through the normalize.css file and customise it to meet the design requirements of a project rather including it as a "black box".

If you prefer to use a different CSS formatting style, consider using a tool like Procssor.

If you would like to minify the file, you can use a tool like this online CSS compressor using YUI Compressor or perform the minification as part of your build process.
