Subject: RE: About the style processing instruction From: "Didier PH Martin" <martind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 2 Feb 1999 20:21:21 -0500 |
Hi Chris, <YourComment> Didier proposed that stylesheet-association processing instructions should include media rules. </YourComment> <Reply> I agree, this adds more versatility but we should also have the possibility to set multiple separate stylesheet for multiple media. My own position is that we should have both. </Reply> <YourComment> I suggested that this is better left to a stylesheet, as not all properties depend on the medium. I adduced CSS's @media rule as an example. </YourComment> <Reply> OK for @media as an example so we then need a way for XSL to specify other media and some persons in this list made suggestions, we will just be more prepared and be better critics of the next specs. We won't be just recipient of W3 specs :-) but thinking organisms. </Reply> <YourComment> XSL has not yet solved this problem, but is not finished. </YourComment> <Reply> Yes I agree, and this is why we have this thread, to think about this issue in the light of XSL stylesheet format. Thinking about this issue is not solely reserved to W3 members but also to people who will use this spec, doesn't it? </Reply> <YourComment> DSSSL does not address this problem, but was not designed for the Web, and adding baggage to the processing instruction for this special case is un-wise. Providing alternate stylesheets with well-chosen titles is a better approach. <YourComment> <Reply> You are talking like if DSSSL is a living dead without any future. Are you implicitely suggesting that DSSSL won't have any future specs improved. Specs more in tune with the CSS and XSL world? Maybe you have good reason to think so, so please expose them. We'll learn. </Reply> Regards Didier PH Martin mailto:martind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.netfolder.com XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
