Epub isn’t media – itmdpesnt belong in an MQ. If you look at the differences between MQ3 and MQ4 you’ll see how they’ve (rightly) simplified it to only includes a core set of thongs From: Ivan Herman [mailto:ivan@w3.org] Sent: Friday, October 30, 2015 3:58 PM To: Dave Cramer <Dave.Cramer@hbgusa.com> Cc: Elika Etemad <fantasai@inkedblade.net>; W3C Digital Publishing IG <public-digipub-ig@w3.org> Subject: Is there a CSS media query for EPUB (or, later, PWP)? Dave, the subject line may just show my ignorance. But is there such a beast? Should there be? I was looking at the proposal for a new style sheet for W3C documents. A sample document is at: http://fantasai.inkedblade.net/style/design/w3c-restyle/2016/sample There is really neat trick, which is based on media queries, on pushing the TOC on the left of the screen (if it is large enough), or to have a small sign on the lower left hand corner of the screen for a narrow screen. It is neat, but if the document is converted into an EPUB, it becomes unnecessary. After all, the EPUB structure requires a TOC; in many respect, that TOC on the left reproduces what Reading Systems do (and they do no matter what). The cleanest would be to control that via a media query… Just an idea very early in the morning:-) Ivan ---- Ivan Herman, W3C Digital Publishing Lead Home: http://www.w3.org/People/Ivan/ mobile: +31-641044153 ORCID ID: http://orcid.org/0000-0003-0782-2704
