I was referring to the line-stacking-strategy. If it is font-height then "It has the same block-progression dimension for each line-area child of a block-area." This means that if we embedd the block within a line area then the line is still the same height as other lines. So even if the block is big enough to fill a page it will be placed in a line area that has the same height as as other lines with only text. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
