I'm guessing #1 > excludes intrinsic sizes? I probably should have ordered them the other 'way around... Intrinsic sizes are calculated first, and they are calculated across the entire element at once, using the ICB of the first page on which the element appears. Then, layout is performed per page using those calculated intrinsic sizes as input and assuming an ICB of the current page size. > Doesn't the ICB affect media queries? No, the viewport size and the page size affect media queries. These are not the same thing as the ICB. > What happens if the second page is narrower, which triggers a MQ which > significantly changes the layout? The MQ <-> page size loop is addressed here: http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-page/#size But basically, MQ need to be resolved before layout, because style resolution needs to happen before layout. So nothing in the style sheet should ever cause a difference in how media queries match. ~fantasai
