Summary0002797: Handling of CSS @media rules appears to have changed
DescriptionSomething appears to have changed in the way that NetSurf handles CSS @media rules between #5221 and #5222, although I can't see anything obvious in the changes shown on Jenkins.

In #5221, @media rules depending on width appear to be respected, with the page being reflowed if the window size is changed and the page is then re-loaded (Ctrl-F5, or reload on the toolbar). In #5222, however, it seems to stay with the layout for the width when the page was opened(?), and not update when the page is re-loaded.

I'm aware that responsive layouts are an area that isn't fully supported, so I'm not sure whether this change is expected or not. It does appear to be a backwards step, however.
Steps To ReproduceUsing a website with a responsive design, open the page and observe the layout.

Now reduce the window size to maybe 50% width, and re-load the page. In #5221, the layout will adjust to the revised @media rules. In #5222, it won't.

An example site is http://www.wakefieldshow.org.uk/ -- below 800px wide, it should have a single-column layout, while above 800px a sidebar appears on the right of the page.
TagsNo tags attached.
