What is most preferred HTML+CSS framework (No Javascript) to make mobile websites?

Mainly I want to make iPhone like button, tabs, transitions, form elements, on-off buttons with etc with CSS3 only. but websites should run well on iphone and Android and latest Blackberry mobiles.

Why no javascript? Seems an odd decision really – the reason why so much is cross compatible is because of JS running. JS also lets you write more managable code, whilst still including transitions etc – CSS transitions are limited if you aren't able to juggle the elements you are using.

I'd recommend jQuery Mobile, despite the fact it uses JS.

  • I thought if something can be possible without JavaScript then we should go for that and JS rendering is heavier and Speed is also a big point of concern on mobile, because of costly Data Plans and slow bandwidth connectivity. But OK as you have given the reason of benefit of using JavaScript then I will go for jQuery Mobile. but some time we need more customization in design rather then default jQuery mobile themes. – Jitendra Vyas Apr 11 '11 at 09:31
  • And I'm only considering Web-Based browsers so I thought most of the things I need can be possible in CSS 3 only. – Jitendra Vyas Apr 11 '11 at 09:33
  • You'll typically save bandwidth by using JS, as you can use templates to avoid transferring the same thing over and over. CSS3 will go a long way, but you'll often want JS to help you deal with it. – Rich Bradshaw Apr 11 '11 at 11:11
