Cross-browser Compatibility Issue: Image Grid Layout in Safari While we were finalizing a project UI, something strange happened. The image grid in our project showcase section appeared completely broken on Safari—elements overlapped, spacing was all wrong, and the layout was far from what we had designed. But on Chrome and Edge, everything was smooth and aligned perfectly. What went wrong? The issue was traced to the use of modern CSS properties—specifically flexbox with the gap property and aspect-ratio. Chrome and other browsers supported these properties without issue, but Safari had inconsistent support for gap within flex containers and also struggled with the aspect-ratio property. This inconsistency caused our image grid to break in Safari, resulting in a poor user experience for Safari users. How we solved it: We replaced the gap property with margin-based spacing to maintain layout consistency across all browsers. For the aspect-ratio issue, we used a padding-based fallback technique to preserve the correct dimensions for the grid items. We implemented @supports queries to target browsers that support modern properties, while offering fallback styles for Safari users. Additionally, we applied targeted media queries to apply custom fixes specifically for Safari versions with known compatibility issues. This issue underscored the importance of testing across all browsers, especially when using newer CSS properties. While modern browsers like Chrome handle these properties well, it's crucial to ensure older or less-supportive browsers like Safari are also accounted for Have you faced similar issues?
