Yeah, a developer who used LibCSS for an iOS app originally added the flex support for us a long time ago. However NetSurf didn't do anything with those properties until a couple of years ago: https://source.netsurf-browser.org/netsurf.git/log/content/handlers/html/layout_flex.c There are a couple of sample test cases here, which use flex properties, and should render the same as Firefox: https://source.netsurf-browser.org/netsurf.git/tree/test/flex If I were developing a web site to work in NetSurf now, I'd use flex. The NetSurf web site doesn't because it was designed years ago and hasn't been modernised. Michael
