What forces layout/reflow. The comprehensive list.

What forces layout / reflow

All of the below properties or methods, when requested/called in JavaScript, will trigger the browser to synchronously calculate the style and layout*. This is also called reflow or layout thrashing, and is common performance bottleneck.

Generally, all APIs that synchronously provide layout metrics will trigger forced reflow / layout. Read on for additional cases and details.

shimo/vpnc "ERROR: can't send packet: Can't assign requested address"

The problem

I've frequently been bit by failures restarting my vpn on my Mac. The connection may appear to start up in Shimo (the menu icon will change) but it looks like vpnc can't connect.

Looking at the log, we see the connection gets stuck

ERROR: can't send packet: Can't assign requested address

This has plagued me for a while, and my only fix has been to restart the machine. I hate restarting my machine. So I finally made time to dig in and find a better solution

Each of these commands will run an ad hoc http static server in your current (or specified) directory, available at http://localhost:8000. Use this power wisely.

Works because a lot of calls internally call setNeedsDisplay or setNeedsLayout. Won't catch everything, but it's very lightweight and usually does the job.You might n…
