BonBon Buttons are sweet CSS3 buttons that are sexy looking, really flexible, but with the most minimalistic markup as possible. There are 3 different materials. A “mate”, “glossy” and a “glass” version. The difference of the later two is that the glass version adds a dark blurry text-shadow which makes it look like you can see trough the button to its bottom.
However, BonBon Buttons are not meant to be used on your next project that targets the average internet user. He just wanted to show a couple techniques how to use some of the new CSS3/HTML5 features. So only the current version of Safari, Chrome and Firefox are supported.
