I run into a situation where using the display: -webkit-box; fixes an issue for me, when no other display property did. So I wonder if I can use it and if it's supported for all browsers: saffari, opera, Firefox,chrome..

  • I got here by searching for this property due to a project where I used -webkit-box back in around 2012 or something, by that time, a lot of CSS3 and HTML5 stuff was basically experimental, and a lot of features used browser prefixes such was "webkit" or "moz" due to browsers having slightly different implementations. I believe this is equivalent to display: flex (or has evolved into it), but I realized I don't need to confirm it for my project, whatever the case is, I don't think this should be used in modern code. – Eduardo Wada Jul 25 '23 at 19:52
  • For some reason it's different from the other display properties. In my case I solved my problem using another medthos. Anyways thanks – AWIXOR Jul 28 '23 at 14:13

I believe display: -webkit-box; is an old flexbox syntax and is no longer used.

This is a great website if you ever have questions on browser support. Can I use...

The link shows the results for display: -webkit-box;. Hope this helps!

    Thank you for sharing the website, I think the result shown is for `-webkit-box-reflect` for some reason there is so little information on the internet about this property, even on MDN – AWIXOR Dec 13 '22 at 12:24
  • I agree. I couldn't find much on the property which was strange. Hope this helped though! – FreddyNoNose Dec 13 '22 at 14:02
  • I don't want to risk it so I just used another way to solve my problem – AWIXOR Dec 13 '22 at 14:37
