After some research and personal testing, it appears to me that if you
want a maximum width for your web page in IE using div's, scripting
will have to be turned on. This being the case, if you are going to
use div's, anyone without scripting turned on in their IE browser
would have to be supplied a single default width, unless you are
willing to have your page extruded to unlimited widths.
If the above is indeed the case, it would be my opinion that table
design, which will give you a max width without the need for
scripting, is superior to the use of div's when you need a max width
to maintain the graphic aspect of your web page within certain
proportions. Otherwise, some screen resolutions will always lose the
benefit of your intended design.
Thus, it appears for this particular need that the most recent html/
css recommendations for design are still inferior to table design due
to lack of implementation in IE. The latest recommendations are no
doubt superior for the purposes of standardization and control in
theoretical browser behavior, but to get the specific behavior
described here now, table design still appears to be superior.
This post is not to put down IE which has often made my life much
easier than Firefox, but not in this case. I would be interested in
any, hopefully well-informed, comments on this post, especially from
anyone who might know of any way to indeed get a max page width in IE
using div's, but with scripting turned off.

Only for IE 6 or older versions. IE7 supports max-width.

I may do that if I have some extra time. In the meantime, have you
ever actually seen css max-width work in IE7? If so, was some
particular setting needed to make it work?

Nope. Only IE7 supports max-width. There are JavaScript hacks that can
make it work in IE6 (possibly earlier versions), but I don't use them.
BTW, that page is not intended as an example of max-width, just a
2-column layout using a particular method. It happens to use max-width.

But, your 2-column layout appears to depend on max-width, so does it
really work in IE 5 and 6 or not?

No it doesn't. Remove max-width and it still works as designed, a two column
layout.

The subject of the page, the two column layout, does. Maxwidth, of course
does not but that is not what the "tested in ..." comment is about. That is
about the two column layout.

No, it does not. The max-width has nothing to do with the 2-column
layout. Take max-width out and you still have 2 columns.

The 2 columns work fine, which is what that page is all about. The
layout just stretches to fill the viewport instead of stopping at 45ems
(or whatever max-width happens to be).

So I've been playing around with trying to add a keyword argument to min
and max that works similarly to the one for sorted. It wasn't too hard
actually, but it does raise a few questions about proper handling of
keyword arguments. Currently, help(max) gives:
max(...)
max(sequence) -> value
max(a, b, c, ...) -> value
With a single sequence argument, return its largest item.

Are the macros min() and max() part of stdlib.h or not? (according to the
standard?)
I have the following problem: I defined my own min() / max() macros because
my compiler (MinGW) does NOT define them. When I tried to compile my program
with lcc-win32 the compiler complained about macro redefinition, because
min() and max() are defined in lcc's stdlib.h..
So do these macros belong there or not?
