CSS Regions Prototype

14 May 2011

This page contains information regarding a WebKit-based prototype of CSS Regions, the proposed additions from Adobe to the W3C CSS (Cascading Style Sheet) modules to build complex, magazine-like layouts using web standards. Capturing in digital form the complex layouts of a typical magazine, newspaper, or textbook requires capabilities beyond those possible with the existing CSS modules. CSS Regions is a proposal that describes how content creators can use some additional basic building blocks to express complex layouts with CSS.

Quite an interesing development – Adobe are obviously looking to move to HTML for their emagazine publishing workflow, which will be far better then what they use currently (which is essentially lots of pngs outputted by InDesign).
