Good work: thanks to the whole Netsurf team.
I'd like to know more about Media Queries vis-a-vis Netsurf. Will the
documentation (link from Netsurf welcome page) be updated soon?
As I understand it from the bottom of my learning curve, Media Queries has
to do with designing a website so that it automatically adapts according
to whether the user is viewing it on a large or small screen.
In the site I have been working on, I have treated Netsurf as the default.
Realizing that Windows users habitually view a page the full size of their
wide monitor, and thus get unreadably wide lines of text, I inserted a
workaround to constrain page to 800px (about A5 width). This works fine
on A5 Android tablet too.
The problem of sensibly adapting the layout for a small screen on a
smartphone has so far eluded me, hence my interest in Media Queries.
