I'm not sure exactly what you mean by this question. Do you mean - what are some possible reasons as to why an element that you believe should expand beyond it's min-width is not expanding? Or is there a more subtle question there that I'm not seeing? If you are in a situation where a box that you believe should be able to expand is not expanding I'd recommend providing a link for us to look at. Possibilities off the top of my head... - invalid HTML (always the first test) - invalid CSS (always the second test) - the width of the element's content is narrower than the min-width! - the browser doesn't support min-width (and perhaps has a width set in a separate stylesheet) - absolute or fixed positioned content (outside of document flow) - floated content (not really a width issue but if floats aren't contained then it may not be apparent what the width of an element is) ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [[email protected]] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
