IE7 and min max width height
According to a few folks on the CSS-Discuss list who are registered as IE7 beta testers, IE7 will be supporting min-height. This is the quote from the dev board for beta testers in the Connect Microsoft feedback system;
Entered by Microsoft on 4/21/2006
This was logged as a suggestion for future IE versions. We’ve already
added support for min-height and it is in the March 20 Beta 2 Preview
build that we put out during MIX06.
Okay, can anyone tell me WHY min-width, max-height, and max-width are not being addressed yet? Without those VERY BASIC and 8 year old css 2.0 and 2.1 specs supported in IE7 we’re in for another 8 or so years of hackyhackyhacky crapola bullshit.
One of my favorite CSS-D people, Ingo Chao, has also brought up that there is a potential problem with min-height in IE7 because, though it works correctly, it adds haslayout, which can mean some very interesting and intense bugbusting down the road.
In a way I’m almost hoping that MS drops the ball on this. Then just MAYBE we can eventually and finally say goodbye to that buggy damn browser.
