How MQ will handle this? I assume you'd handle it the same way as when 'width' and 'height', which refer to the viewport, change dynamically. There's no concept of time or sequence in (non-aural) CSS. If the viewport is X inches wide, then the initial containing block is X inches wide, media queries mapping to an X-inch-wide viewport apply, and the layout is defined from there. ~fantasai
