To ensure compatibility in the future, applications using this property should be updated accordingly.

This property is read/write.

Remarks

Be aware that these are IHTMLCurrentStyle2::writingMode dependent keywords; the starting and ending edges of the parent element and child elements depend on the layout direction. For instance, for a left-to-right layout, the starting edge is the left edge of the parent element, for a top-to-bottom layout the starting edge is the top edge, and so on. Likewise, the ending edge of a child element is the right edge in a left-to-right layout, the bottom edge in a top-to-bottom layout, and so on.

Examples

The following ID selector has added the IHTMLCSSStyleDeclaration2::msBoxPack property and set it to justify:

<style type="text/css">
#myFlexbox
{
    display: -ms-box;
    -ms-box-pack: justify;
    background: grey;
    border: blue;
}
</style>
