Hello Tab, > We're planning to add "inner" and "outer" values to 'float', which, in > a page context, indicate the direction of the spine or the edge. (In > a non-page context, they'll act like "start" and "end", respectively.) Yes, this sounds more useful for the purpose :-) BTW, will these values be available for text-align values, and for padding/margin as well? Then, a marginalia could be formatted like this: .marginalia { float: outer; clear: both; margin-outer: -32mm; /* we need to float *out* of the block! */ text-align: inner; display: block; width: 30mm; } ... and the @page rule would boil down to: @page { padding-outer: 32mm; } (without the need to write this twice, for :left and :right pages) -- Tobias
