207 /* Overflow containers are continuation frames that hold overflow. They
208 * are created when the frame runs out of computed height, but still has
209 * too much content to fit in the availableHeight. The parent creates a
210 * continuation as usual, but marks it as NS_FRAME_IS_OVERFLOW_CONTAINER
211 * and adds it to its next-in-flow's overflow container list, either by
212 * adding it directly or by putting it in its own excess overflow containers
213 * list (to be drained by the next-in-flow when it calls
214 * ReflowOverflowContainerChildren). The parent continues reflow as if
215 * the frame was complete once it ran out of computed height, but returns
216 * either an NS_FRAME_NOT_COMPLETE or NS_FRAME_OVERFLOW_INCOMPLETE reflow
217 * status to request a next-in-flow. The parent's next-in-flow is then
218 * responsible for calling ReflowOverflowContainerChildren to (drain and)
219 * reflow these overflow continuations. Overflow containers do not affect
220 * other frames' size or position during reflow (but do affect their
221 * parent's overflow area).
223 * Overflow container continuations are different from normal continuations
224 * in that
225 * - more than one child of the frame can have its next-in-flow broken
226 * off and pushed into the frame's next-in-flow
227 * - new continuations may need to be spliced into the middle of the list
228 * or deleted continuations slipped out
229 * e.g. A, B, C are all fixed-size containers on one page, all have
230 * overflow beyond availableHeight, and content is dynamically added
231 * and removed from B
232 * As a result, it is not possible to simply prepend the new continuations
233 * to the old list as with the overflowProperty mechanism. To avoid
234 * complicated list splicing, the code assumes only one overflow containers
235 * list exists for a given frame: either its own overflowContainersProperty
236 * or its prev-in-flow's excessOverflowContainersProperty, not both.
238 * The nsOverflowContinuationTracker helper class should be used for tracking
239 * overflow containers and adding them to the appropriate list.

443 * Helper class for tracking overflow container continuations during reflow.
445 * A frame is related to two sets of overflow containers: those that /are/
446 * its own children, and those that are /continuations/ of its children.
447 * This tracker walks through those continuations (the frame's NIF's children)
448 * and their prev-in-flows (a subset of the frame's normal and overflow
449 * container children) in parallel. It allows the reflower to synchronously
450 * walk its overflow continuations while it loops through and reflows its
451 * children. This makes it possible to insert new continuations at the correct
452 * place in the overflow containers list.
454 * The reflower is expected to loop through its children in the same order it
455 * looped through them the last time (if there was a last time).
456 * For each child, the reflower should either
457 * - call Skip for the child if was not reflowed in this pass
458 * - call Insert for the overflow continuation if the child was reflowed
459 * but has incomplete overflow
460 * - call Finished for the child if it was reflowed in this pass but
461 * is either complete or has a normal next-in-flow. This call can
462 * be skipped if the child did not previously have an overflow
463 * continuation.
