The simple-form character 着 seems to have 羊 over 目, or 丷 over 看, but 着 is really an abbrev. of 著, formerly wr. 箸.
Note: The different forms 着/著 represent attempts to distinguish old usages of 箸; today the distinction in simplified texts is mostly 著 zhù ‘write, writings/book’, vs. 着 for the other pronunciations; sometimes 著 is used rather than 着 among full form characters, regardless of the pronunciation; cf. 箸.
Note: The character 着 seems to have more pronunciations and meanings than any other common Chinese character (except perhaps for 和); even native Chinese speakers sometimes disagree on the distinctions; for ex., some people say 着陆 zháolù though the dictionaries say it should be 着陆 zhuólù; dictionaries disagree on whether 着 in 不着边际 ‘not to the point’ should be zháo or zhuó; but the distinction between 着 zhe (progressive suffix) and 着 zháo (as in 用不着) is important.
Compare: 看 kàn ‘see’; 者 zhě ‘nom. suf.’.
