Ladies and gentlemen,
I would not consider H-SMILE engine as a "Working UA" so far, but
nevertheless...
Here is a link to the page
http://www.terrainformatica.com/htmengine/v3/
and link to download demo application:
http://terrainformatica.com/htmengine/v3/HTMEngine3Demo.zip
Beside the executable there are samples in the archive.
How to use it:
1) Unzip the archive somewhere on disk drive of your Windows PC .
2) Start wtl_browse.exe and open html files in samples folder
of the distribution by using menu: File/Open of the application.
Samples explanation:
1) samples/percent_percent_units.htm - sort of formal definition of %%
units.
2) samples/editor/index.htm - UI mockup of sample application.
%% units are used there to position elements horizontally and
vertically.
3) samples/sidebars.htm - typical web page layout esciso - %% demo.
4) samples/backgrounds.htm - sample of backgrounds
supported by H-SMILE engine. Gradient backgrounds and extended tiling
demos.
Some screenshots of demos:

What you can see there:
1) %% units live demonstration.
2) attribute 'flow' and flow:horizontal - being applied
to block container makes it equivalent of HBOX in XUL.
Default value: flow:vertical - standard DIV behaviour.
In flow:horizontal margin overlaping rules are also applicable.
Very useful.
3) expandable and stretchable backgrounds.
I am using new value for background-repeat attribute: 'expand'
with background-position which can take four image slicing offsets.
See: samples/backgrounds.htm and

4) Just enjoy HTML renderer compiled in 600 kbytes :) ( Joke! )
