Only hasLayout kids will remember

Yeah, IE7 and below (not sure when it was introduced, IE4 according to some source)

Horrible details on this well -named site:
haslayout.net/haslayout.html
Internet Explorer hasLayout - hasLayout.net by Zoffix Znet

But does it still trigger hasLayout?!

Stumbled upon this for no reason whatsoever, but it looks like CSS zoom is now “newly available across major browsers” two and a half decades after its introduction: caniuse.com/css-zoom

And now I’m getting weirdly fond memories of all the clearfixes ever shipped using zoom: 1;

Finally everyone gets "hasLayout"!
What's next \*/ ?

But will it involve hasLayout style special effects?

I am proud to say I’ve had to use ˋzoom: 1ˋ in css! It was fixing issues in Internet Explorer 6 and above regarding what was known as the ˋhasLayout` internal properties on Element. For example inline-block was not working without that!

Set `_zoom: 1;` on the container to trigger `hasLayout` and then it should be fine 🙃

Can we now all hasLayout?
April 23, 2025 at 9:56 PM
I am a hasLayout kid. Whether that layout still has it, I don’t know

The first article I saved with Pocket: 12/08/2012 web.archive.org/web/20120707... (via @waybackmachine.bsky.social) A reference to a document on Internet Explorer layouts. Also something consigned to the past. According to my data I never read it. I can now update that read status.

I already dislike all IE versions and literally hate IE6. Now I hate IE7 too. Damn you "hasLayout"! https://www.facebook.com/dkOId

Why does this layout look different in IE8 and FF? http://ow.ly/2P2nA I have tried adding hasLayout (via min-height) #css #ie8

hasLayout was first suspect, of course. Weird that problem shows in IE7 but not IE6/8.
December 14, 2024 at 9:54 PM
almost fixed in IE -- had to trigger hasLayout
November 9, 2024 at 2:07 PM
Ahh yeah good old hasLayout
