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.

Element APIs

Getting box metrics

• elem.offsetLeft, elem.offsetTop, elem.offsetWidth, elem.offsetHeight, elem.offsetParent

// Usage:
//   Copy and paste all of this into a debug console window of the "Who is Hiring?" comment thread 
//   then use as follows:
//
//   query(term | [term, term, ...], term | [term, term, ...], ...)
// 
// When arguments are in an array then that means an "or" and when they are seperate that means "and"
//
// Term is of the format:
//    ((-)text/RegExp)  ( '-' means negation )
