msGetRulesAppliedWithAncestor method
Returns a collection of rules from a previous call to IHTMLElementAppliedStyles::msGetRulesApplied or IHTMLElementAppliedStyles::msGetRulesAppliedWithAncestor on one of the element's ancestors. By making this call, you avoid recalculating styles from that ancestor on upwards.
