[css3-multicol] references to paged media from H�kon Wium Lie on 2013-03-03 (www-style@w3.org from March 2013) (original) (raw)
Also sprach L. David Baron:
I think essentially everything in the specification that says it applies to paged media should also apply inside of a multi-column element, inside of regions, etc.
I agree.
I think almost all, if not all, of the references in http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-multicol/ to paged vs. continuous media should instead be references to fragmented vs. continuous contexts.
...
(http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-break/#fragmentation-model defines the term "fragmentation context". I'm essentially using "in a fragmented context" to mean anything that's inside a "fragmentation context", and "in a continuous context" to mean anything that's not.)
It's probably best not to add normative references to a WD.
Could we address this by adding a blanket statement like:
Properties in this speciciation apply to the media groups specified in the property definition. All properties that apply to the "paged" media type also applies inide other boxes that causes breaks by constraining content flow in the block direction.
