the third edition of “Cascading Style Sheets — designing
for tbe Web” have been included.<span class="footnote"> That
book <em>was</em> produced using the methods described in the
document, and it was published by Addison-Wesley in 2005.</span> The
excerpts have been selected for their example values and they appear,
in this document, out of order.</p>
<p>The PDF version of this document is produced directly from the HTML
and CSS sources by the Prince formatter.</p>becomes in Markdown:
