[css-d] IE7 support for min-height.

2005-12-22 Thread Tony Crockford
does anyone know the current position regarding min-height support in IE7?

or more specifically, what will happen to CSS rules written thus:

div.headline{
 height: 40px;
 min-height: 40px;
 padding: 1px 0 0 0;
}

htmlbody div.headline{
height: auto;
}

where height set to 40px in the first declaration is reset to auto 
using a child selector, so that *good* browsers allow the div to grow 
with larger fonts or more content... (height acting as min-height in 
IE which can't see the child selector)

AIUI IE7 will support child selectors which will mean without 
min-height support my headline will collapse to the size of it's 
content...

(I have a lot of style sheets using this)

TIA

Tony

Nobody outside Microsoft does.  In the various IE team postings 
about what will be added or fixed in IE7, 'min-height' (along with 
its cousins) has not been mentioned.  I have taken this to mean that 
their addition is unlikely, but not absolutely ruled out.  We'll just 
have to wait to see what happens.

CSS is much too interesting and elegant to be not taken seriously.
