- 2I have to disagree. For me that's an awesome feature, but also for me it's logical that the design gets broken if I resize something with external means. ... Great, that now means I have to look up on how to make the browser completely ignore that setting?Time Traveling Bobby– Time Traveling Bobby2012-01-12 07:50:44 +00:00Commented Jan 12, 2012 at 7:50
- @Bobby It's not really an "external means"; it's part of the CSS standard. If this was e.g. some browser addon that does this, we could ignore it; it would be just like changing CSS via Firebug, which is obviously not supported by us. But the resizing is part of the standard, and Firefox and Chrome chose the wrong default value. So just like other issues where browsers are broken, we have to make sure that we're somewhat cross-browser compatible.balpha– balpha StaffMod2012-01-12 07:56:38 +00:00Commented Jan 12, 2012 at 7:56
- Oh, I didn't know it was in the CSS3 standard that way. I never saw it as part of the page itself, so I never expected it to work with the side, and if stuff got broken I just accepted that. That it is in the standard changes that, of course. Though I'd like to tell you that it is nonsense to disable it completely (because it sucks for me, I was using that extensively and didn't care for the broken layout), I can completely understand that point.Time Traveling Bobby– Time Traveling Bobby2012-01-12 08:10:58 +00:00Commented Jan 12, 2012 at 8:10
- 1Agreed, for the most part. We probably wouldn't have touched it if there had been no complaints. Anyway, as I said in that answer, we have no problem with specifically enabling it in spots where it makes sense and doesn't cause issues. We just default to off, like the W3C intended.balpha– balpha StaffMod2012-01-12 08:26:01 +00:00Commented Jan 12, 2012 at 8:26

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. stack-overflow), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
