<article>  <div>    <h1>A Lament for Confederation</h1>    <p>&mdash;Chief Dan George, 1967</p>  </div>  <p>    How long have I known you, Oh Canada? A hundred years? Yes, a hundred years.    And many, many tides more. And today, when you celebrate your hundred years,    Oh Canada, I am sad for all the Indian people throughout the land.  </p>  <p>    For I have known you when your forests were mine; when they gave me my meat    and my clothing. I have known you in your fruits and rivers where your fish    flashed and danced in the sun, where the waters said ‘come and eat of my    abundance.’ I have known you in the freedom of your winds. And my spirit,    like your winds, once roamed this good lands.  </p>  <blockquote>    <p>      But in long the hundred years since the white man came, I have seen that      freedom disappear just like the salmon going mysteriously out to sea.    </p>  </blockquote>  <p>    The white man’s strange customs I could not understand, pressed down upon me    until I could no longer breathe.  </p>  <p>    When I fought to protect my home and my land, I was called a savage. When I    neither understood nor welcomed this new way of life, I was called lazy.    When I tried to rule my people, I was stripped of my authority.  </p>  <p>    My nation was ignored in your history textbooks – we were less important in    the history of Canada than the buffalo that ranged the plains. I was    ridiculed in your plays and motion pictures, and when I drank your    fire-water, I got drunk – very, very drunk. And I forgot.  </p>  <p>    Oh Canada, how can I celebrate with you this centenary, this hundred years?    Shall I thank you for the reserves that are left me of my beautiful forests?    Shall I thank you for the canned fish of my rivers? Shall I thank you for    the loss of my pride and authority, even among my own people? For the lack    of my will to fight back? No! I must forget what is past and gone.  </p>  <p>    Oh God in heaven! Give me the courage of the olden chiefs. Let me wrestle    with my surroundings. Let me once again, as in the days of old, dominate my    environment. Let me humbly accept this new culture and through it rise up    and go on.  </p>  <p>    Oh god, like the thunderbird of old, I shall rise again out of the sea. I    shall grab the instruments of the white man’s success – his education, his    skills, and with these new tools I shall build my race into the proudest    segment of your society. And, before I follow the great chiefs who have gone    before us, I shall see these things come to pass.  </p>  <p>    I shall see our young braves and our chiefs sitting in the house of law and    government, ruling and being ruled by the knowledge and freedoms of our    great land. So shall we shatter the barriers of our isolation. So shall the    next hundred years be the greatest in the proud history of our tribes and    nations.  </p></article><fieldset>  <legend role="button" aria-expanded="true" aria-controls="controls">    段のオプション  </legend>  <div>    <p>      <input type="range" min="0" max="5" value="5" />      <label for="colCount">段の最大数</label>    </p>    <p>      <input type="range" min="2" max="40" value="10" step="2" />      <label for="colWidth">段の最小幅</label>    </p>    <p>      <input type="range" min="0" max="10" value="1" step="0.5" />      <label for="gapSize">段間</label>    </p>    <p>      <input type="checkbox" checked />      <label for="colSpan">署名欄をすべての段にまたがらせる</label>    </p>    <p>      <input type="checkbox" />      <label for="blockSpan">引用をすべての段にまたがらせる</label>    </p>    <p>      <input type="checkbox" />      <label for="colFill">段のバランスをとる</label>    </p>    <p>      <input type="checkbox" />      <label for="break">段落を分割しない</label>    </p>  </div></fieldset>

メモ:段組みレイアウトは、文書全体が印刷ページに分割されるように行ボックスに分割することから、ページメディアに密接に関連します。従って、CSS 断片化仕様書に定義されているプロパティが、段間のコンテンツの区切り位置を制御するために必要になりました。

メモ:コンテナーの高さと行の長さを設定すると、視覚障碍や認知障碍のある方にとって操作が困難になる場合があることにご注意ください。WCAG 達成基準 1.4.8 では、テキストサイズが 2 倍になっても、コンテンツをスクロールする必要がなくなるようにすべきであると規定されています。
