Baseline
Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since August 2021.
The resize event of the VisualViewport interface is fired when the visual viewport is resized. This allows you to position elements relative to the visual viewport as it is zoomed, which would normally be anchored to the layout viewport.
Syntax
Use the event name in methods like addEventListener(), or set an event handler property.
js
addEventListener("resize", (event) => { })
onresize = (event) => { }
Event type
A generic Event.
Examples
See the VisualViewport landing page for a usage demo.
