fit-content polyfill for IE
I'm using fit-content for a CSS width in my project. But in IE, it doesn't work, according to this MDN article and this Can I Use. I'm using width: fit-content on a <div>. Is there a polyfill for this? If there is another way without a polyfill, I'd gladly accept that.
My code (severely stripped down):
var i = 0;
setInterval(function(){document.getElementById('total').innerHTML = `${++i} s`}, 1000);#total {
position: absolute;
margin-top: 10px;
margin-left: 10px;
font: 300px "Times New Roman";
border: 1px solid #000;
max-width: 88.9%;
width: -webkit-fit-content;
width: -moz-fit-content;
width: fit-content; /* Doesn't work in IE */
}<div id="total">0</div>css internet-explorer polyfills

Try to remove the width property, by default this property is set to auto.
Then the div will auto increase, code as below:
<script type="text/javascript">
var i = 0;
setInterval(function () { document.getElementById('total').innerHTML = (++i) + " s" }, 1000);
</script>
<style type="text/css">
#total {
position: absolute;
margin-top: 10px;
margin-left: 10px;
font: 300px "Times New Roman";
border: 1px solid #000;
max-width: 88.9%;
}
</style>
<div id="total">0</div>
The output as below (using IE 11):
