Hello,

>From the spec:

http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/CR-css3-mediaqueries-20020708/#width
****************************
6.1

The "width" media feature describes the width of the rendering surface of
the output device. For continuous media, this is the width of the viewport
(as described by CSS2).
****************************

Is my understanding correct that this basically requires a complete
reprocessing of all the stylesheets and recalculating computed properties
for all elements every time you resize the window? (disregarding
optimizations)

thanks,
