Max-width always work, but when I enter mind-width: 800px; it never works.

I can still narrow the browser window until the design breaks.

I use floats, no absolute positioning, and this is the second design where min-width doesn't work.

What could be the reason?

I believe once you have width in %% not in px you will have what you need.

In which browsers?
Internet Explorer 6 does not support this property.

If you provide absolute positioning to the element, it will be 50% in FF. However, IE doesn't like the min-width or min-height attributes, so you will have to define width as 50% also for it to work in IE.

To start with, lots of standard CSS features don't work across the browsers. If it doesn't work, forget it and resort to other ways to achieve what you want done.

I have been struggling for some time, trying to make IE behave as if it
actually do understand the css attribute min-width.

In FireFox this code works perfectly:

<div style="width: 60%; min-width: 300px;">Some texst</div>

If the viewport is more than 500 px wide, the width of the box is 60 % of
the width of the vieport. If the viewport is less than 500 px wide, the
width of the box is 300 px.

IE doesn't understand that and the width of the box is always 60 % of the
width of the viewport.

Nothing I have tried works as wanted.

Anyone who knows how to make IE do as wanted?

I have always found that the more notice you give your boss the better. Don't ask this week for time off THIS weekend. It's not giving him much time to find a replacement for you. Ask well in advance and he will be more inclined to not have a problem with it as whoever he gets to cover for you will have adequate time to rearrange their schedule. Last minute time off requests are a big no-no.

Mid-width are effective only when assured constituents are placed perfectly. For correct purpose reliance on automotive meaning might not work, thus enter necessary width yourself.

Mid-width tends to be effective only if specific constituents are inserted correctly. For correct function reliance upon automotive definition may not work, therefore get into necessary width manually.

While particular components are organized properly then Mid-width becomes effective. You have to place the essential width accordingly not depending on automatic definitions.

These Mid-widths are effectual merely when specific parts are set exactly. For suitable utility, requirement on self-propelled meaning is not useful; so place the essential width yourself.

If you supply absolute positioning to the element, it will be 50% in FF. However, IE doesn't like the min-width or min-height attributes, so you will have to determine width as 50% too for it to work in IE.

Mid-width tends to be very effective for the only specific constituents are inserted currently and obviously for the correct functions of reliance upon the automotive definitions and may not be really working also.

ricardopowell32

Half the width tends to be effective only if specific components are placed correctly. For the confidence that the correct operation of automobiles on the definition can not work, therefore wide enough to enter it manually.

It is effective only when the middle class to ensure the full implementation of the components. Probably not, because the recovery will depend on a suitable vehicle, enter the width you want.

looks like min-width is an unssoppourted property on IE, see here:
http://www.w3schools.com/CSS/css_dimension.asp

also heres a possible workaround:
http://www.webreference.com/programming/min-width/

resources: GOOGLE

also it would help if you would specify which browser your using since the 3 rendering engined out there interpret some html and css rules differently.... ie6 vs ie7+ are different than ff and safari/chrome.....

Mid-range, there tends to be effective only if a particular component is inserted correctly. Because of the dependence may not work correctly when defining feature of the car, which therefore required width manually.

Mid-width is effective only when all the constituents are inserted in the correct manner . An automotive definition may not work properly. There are also many other reasons.

mitapaul16
12-15-2012, 01:53 AM
In min-width: 50%;, the 50% is in reference to the containing block. I've never used percentages with min-width, but I find it can be useful with other units. For example if I have a block (like a column of text) that I want to be full width, but I don't ever want it to go below a minimum width, I could use something like {width: 100%; min-width: 250px;}

richardomartin1
02-08-2013, 01:43 AM
The min-widths work when the correct constituents are put in. You cannot depend on auto mode for the proper functioning of the min-widths, hence they have to manually insert.

Jesseryder21
04-04-2013, 04:17 AM
If you have included the right constituents, min-widths might work out well. There is no way you can depend on the functioning of min-widths through auto mode, thus manual insertion is required.
