# normalize.scss v0.1.0
Normalize.scss is the SCSS version of [normalize.css](http://necolas.github.io/normalize.css), a customisable CSS file that makes browsers render all elements more consistently and in line with modern standards.

[Normalize.css v1 provides legacy browser
support](https://github.com/necolas/normalize.css/tree/v1) (IE 6+, Safari 4+),
but is no longer actively developed.
## Extended details
Additional detail and explanation of the esoteric parts of normalize.css.
#### `pre, code, kbd, samp`
The `font-family: monospace, monospace` hack fixes the inheritance and scaling
of font-size for preformated text. The duplication of `monospace` is
intentional. [Source](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Davidgothberg/Test59).
#### `sub, sup`
Normally, using `sub` or `sup` affects the line-box height of text in all
browsers. [Source](http://gist.github.com/413930).
#### `svg:not(:root)`
Adding `overflow: hidden` fixes IE9's SVG rendering. Earlier versions of IE
don't support SVG, so we can safely use the `:not()` and `:root` selectors that
modern browsers use in the default UA stylesheets to apply this style. [SVG

#### `input[type="search"]`
The search input is not fully stylable by default. In Chrome and Safari on
OSX/iOS you can't control `font`, `padding`, `border`, or `background`. In
Chrome and Safari on Windows you can't control `border` properly. It will apply
`border-width` but will only show a border color (which cannot be controlled)
for the outer 1px of that border. Applying `-webkit-appearance: textfield`
addresses these issues without removing the benefits of search inputs (e.g.
showing past searches).
#### `legend`
Adding `border: 0` corrects an IE 811 bug where `color` (yes, `color`) is not
inherited by `legend`.
