This area is slightly problematic, because min-height is not yet
supported by IE7 (though we're promised it for the proper release). If
we assume it will be included, the neatest solution that works in all
browsers is:
#element { min-height:100px }
* html #element { height:100px }
Some people are against CSS hacks, but this is the only solution I
know of that is valid CSS and unlikely to have any adverse effects in
the future. [AFAIK (I can't test it here), the /*\*/ hack Stu uses is
not necessary, and in fact will make it break in IE5/mac.]
If by some madness IE7 doesn't support min-height this will at least
not harm matters, although an additional hack would probably be
needed. Let's hope not.
