| Visual formatting model implementation. |
| See https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS22/visuren.html for more information. |
| |
| WebCore |
| 1. recursive layout |
| 2. layout logic lives in the renderers mixing block with inline etc. |
| 3. No clear separation of logic and state. |
| |
| LayoutReloaded |
| 1. Iterative layout within a formatting context, recursive across nested formatting contexts |
| 2. Formatting context is responsible for computing size/positions for all the boxes that live in the |
| context including in/out-of-flow and floating boxes |
| 3. Layout state is stored in dedicated FormattingState objects. |
| 3. Initial containing block creates the top level (initial) block formatting context |
| 4. Floats are resitriced to their formatting contexts. |
| 5. Boxes, including inline tree are generated while laying out the content. LayoutTree -> BoxTree. |
| |
| Instructions: |
| 1. apply ./misc/LayoutReloadedWebKit.patch |
| 2. compile WebKit |
| 3. load ./test/index.html |
| |
| Partially done: |
| Block formatting context: |
| - static, relative and out of flow positioning |
| - margin collapsing |
| - floats |
| |
| Missing: |
| - Inline formatting context |
| - Everything else |
