But more like broadcast TV then publish book, because as author you DO
NOT have absolute control over how the content is displayed anymore that
the broadcaster cant force color TV to display color over a B&W TV.
Neither can you *force* a font on a webpage where the user does not have
installed on his system, nor 1200px width on a 600px set monitor, nor
*force* javascript effects when javascript is disabled, nor even *force*
image or colors if user's browser is like Lynx, nor *force* the printed
margin on the page to exactly 1/2 inch (a question repeated without
end), nor *force* to be printed on tablet or legal size paper!
That's my point. You don't, and shouldn't *force* control over a web
browser. If you try with your webpage you are doom to failure.

Take care,
