Min width solution?

Lack of support for min-width and max-width

Again comparing to all other browsers on the market, IE is the only one that doesn?t support the CSS2 properties min-width and max-width (which have been a standard since 1997, incidentally). These are incredibly useful for controlling larger areas of type, particularly when setting line length limits to aid in readability.

The trick to getting around min-width in IE is actually pretty easy. IE treats width as if it were min-width. By exploiting the fact that IE doesn?t support child selectors either (more on this later) we can create a simple bit of code that doesn?t allow a browser window to shrink below a certain size:

body {
width: 700px;
}
html>body {
width: auto;
min-width: 700px;
}
