When elements are floated to the left or right in a layout, they take up space and influence where other elements can be placed. The Space Manager is responsible for keeping track of where space is taken up and where it is available. This information is used by block layout to correctly compute where other floated elements should be placed, and how much space is available to normal in-flow elements that flow around the floated bits.</dd><dt class="landingPageList"><a href="/en-US/docs/Archive/Mozilla/Standalone_XPCOM">Standalone XPCOM</a></dt><dd class="landingPageList"><b>Standalone XPCOM</b> is a tree configuration that builds a minimal set of libraries (shared mostly) that can be used to get all features of XPCOM.
