Is "webkit" a CSS standard? Such as when used with "@-webkit-keyframes flash{0%,50%,100%{opacity:1} ... ;animation-name:flash}"

Question

I am trying to understand where this type of "webkit" content is coming from. I have seen in in multiple CSS files.

Is this an open standard in CSS?

As it says, it is a vendor prefix and it is **not** a standard. — Praveen Kumar Purushothaman, Sep 19 '15 at 14:04

This is not a standard.

WebKit is a HTML/CSS web browser rendering engine for Safari/Chrome.

Other browser's use other rendering engines.

Try to use a clean css, without -webkit or -moz attributes. Use them only if you very need them, or better even use sass (compass tool) that will add all of them if you will put some css that will need special support for special engine.
