Re: Length of line

Thanks, I’ll try that, I’ve been looking for that kind of thing for a while!

It does not undermine the point of the exception though (for the resize content SC).  That UA provides re-flow, great! It does not meet the exception, but it does provide reflow, so that’s what we’re looking for, not whether it a mobile UA or not.

However, I don’t think that exception is needed for the line length or reflow SC, because they are intended to apply when the user is over-riding the author styles.

The intent is that the author allows for that (primarily ordering and CSS methods used), not that they provide the mechanism.

Cheers,

Not sure if it would totally fit your criteria, but Opera for Android does text-reflow when you pinch-zoom.

I’d love to see an example of that, where can I find one?! (And which device(s)?)



As I outlined here, that isn’t how mobile UAs do layout:
