Choose your stylesheet
Now, you can view this site in different layouts
The <link />, resp. <link>, tag has been characterised as one of the least exploited tags in the history of Hypertext Markup Language (HTML). In fact it is a very powerful tool to get along with features of a secondary order, the metadata. At first, when HTML 4.0 became a recommendation for writing web pages of the standardization organ World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), it was used for attaching stylesheets to web documents. However, in the specifications it was already anticipated that WWW browsers should be able to deploy more of this. Apart from stylesheets, W3C extended the <link /> tag with features such as bookmarking, subdividing into chapters and sections, and alternative versions of the documents.
The new thing here is that I offer you alternating stylesheets. A print alternative is available whereby you can view the page as it will appear on print. As for to-day, this is possible only in the Firefox browser with the extension Stylesheet Chooser Plus by 26 years old French engineering student Olivier Daroux. I recommend this tool if you want to preview printouts from this site in a fast way.
Other alternating stylesheets will be available at a later time.
