Description:
Defines the ordinal group to which flexible boxes belong. Authors can assign flexible boxes
to arbitrary group numbers. When laying out the boxes, the groups are laid out in numeric
order, with the flexible boxes within each group arranged according to their source order and
the value of
box-direction
. This allows authors to arrange flexible boxes within their parent
box in a manner completely independent of their source order.
Examples:
.sticky {box-ordinal-group: 1;}
.footer {box-ordinal-group: 13;}
Note:
This property is from the 2009 version of the Flexible Box specification. It is expected to be
deprecated by a new version of the specification, and potentially retired from browsers some
time after.
