Media Queries and 'view mode' are W3C Recommendations

The Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) Working Group has published a W3C Recommendation of Media Queries, which lets designers create effective Web experiences by adjusting styles according to device capabilities (such as screen dimensions or color support) or state (such as device orientation).

W3C also published today a W3C Recommendation of the 'view-mode' Media Feature, from the Web Applications Working Group. Mutual dependencies between these two Recommendations caused this publication to be delayed until both could be released simultaneously. The 'view-mode' specification extends media query design capabilities to Web application states (e.g., occupies the entire screen or is minimized).
