Where can I find a guide to the inner workings of Internet Explorer's Trident engine?


Just as the title says. As i went through different explanations for choices made about the stylesheets of HTML pages, the masters sometimes seem to know how this layout engine seems to work in IE6, IE7 or IE8. I haven't found a good resource about Trident yet, maybe you guys can help me out?


Solution

  • There isn't really a guide to the inner workings of Trident, since the only people who have seen the code are prevented from disclosing it by NDA. I have seen it, and I know a lot about how it works, and I can assure you that any reference other than the code won't help you anyway. If you have specific questions, you should feel free to ask your specific questions.
