That way, IE would ignore the standard 'max-width' and the perfect browser would ignore the comments. [code]<!--[if IE 5]> <style type="text/css"> #container { width: expression(document.body.clientWidth > 1024? "1024px": "100%" ); } </style> <![endif]-->[/code] Again, it's more of a hack than anything else, of course, but when max-width is what I need for my layout and it isn't possible to do it 'correctly' in IE, then I think I can live with it. //edit: poi - Generally offsetWidth might be the safer bet, but in my case it was for a <div> that serves as a container for the whole page, so clientWidth worked just as well.... ;) kuckus [small](Edited by [internallink=1695]kuckus[/internallink] on 02-26-2005 11:55)[/small] Loading...
