I 'edit' (for loose values of the word 'edit') a monthly PDF magazine. When a new issue is released, the articles from the previous issue become viewable on the magazine's website. Currently, I have separate screen and print stylesheets for the articles on the web; this is - to me - an old technique, and one that works well.
Right now, the print stylesheet runs the content all the way across the page as a single column. What I'd like to do is have it run the content into two columns, such that - like the PDF magazine - you would read down the left column, then down the right column, and if the article overflows the page, the next page starts again on the left. Ideally, the columns on the last page would be equalized, but I'm perfectly willing to not try to do that at this time. I'm reluctant to do major hacking on the HTML; I'd prefer to stick to just using CSS to do this. Am I asking for too much at this point? If not, how do I do it? http://www.freelancetraveller.com/features/columns/t5i/eras.html is a typical article that I'd want to apply this to. You can see what the current web print layout looks like by simply doing a print preview in any of the major browsers. The two CSS files are http://www.freelancetraveller.com/screen.css and http://www.freelancetraveller.com/print.css. -- Jeff Zeitlin, Editor Freelance Traveller The Electronic Fan-Supported Traveller® Fanzine and Resource edi...@freelancetraveller.com http://www.freelancetraveller.com http://come.to/freelancetraveller http://freelancetraveller.downport.com/ ®Traveller is a registered trademark of Far Future Enterprises, 1977-2009.
