I need to set a minimum height for a div, yet have it expand with the
contents.
I have this from 2005:
<style type="text/css">
div{
height: 12px;
background-color: red;
1px solid black;min-height:12px
}
html>body div{
height: auto; /* for not-IE */
}
</style>
<div>one<br>two </div>
<br>
<div></div>
That works in my Firefox 2.0, Opera 9 and IE6 win XP.
Is that still the current best wisdom on this task? This still works
in IE7?

If I set a height then the text might flow below the div. I don't want
to stuff 's in them.
I had thought that IE7 had implemented min-height? IIRC, it does
have min-width and max-width implemented, although you have to be
sure IE7 doesn't stumble into quirks mode...

OK...

Sounds like you decided on a solution (min-height) without fully
describing the problem, hence you may be fixing the wrong thing.
Post a URL, or at least a mockup showing your data in context. Then we
may be able to show you a better way to approach it.

I found this, circa 2006: http://www.dustindiaz.com/min-height-fast-hack/
selector {
min-height:500px;
height:auto !important;
height:500px;
}
That supposedly worked in IE7.

It's my old color styler that I posted a month ago. If you don't
remember it, I'll post it without live data in it.

Hi
I am trying to find the min of a list of numbers. For example, if a
user enters 10 numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,9 then the min would be 1.
I've looked as past posts on the topic, and there was one that
mentioned macro's. Could someone explain how do macro's (if at all)
work within the C programming environment.
Thanks

Hi,
Some time after reading about Python 2.5 and how the built-in functions
'min' and 'max' will be getting a new 'key' argument, I wondered how
they would treat those cases where the keys were the same, for example:
L =
print min(L, key = len), max(L, key = len)
The result is:

Hi,
I'm wondering if there is a min function (in boost, maybe?) that
accepts any number of arguments? std::min only accepts two arguments.
If I want to get the minimum number out of many, I have use std::min
many times, which is not convenient.
Thanks,

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
