Good evening James, It was foretold that on 5-2-2004 @ 14:34:33 GMT+1100 (which was 4:34:33 where I live) James Cowperthwaite would mumble: <snipped a bit>

There is no way to use pure css for what you want i'm afraid. You could use the underscore hack as i said but that will not validate your css sheet. So you can also use an IE proprietary expression [1) or JS [2] You can use the min-width in your main css sheet for decent browsers and use a sheet for crappy IE with the expression and feed it to IE with a conditional comment in your source code. You could also place a fix-width div inside the main div to force it to be at least the width you need, but then you're hacking the markup in a way that affects all browsers, rather than creating one invalid rule for one invalid browser, which can easily be dropped later if IE "ever" shapes up.
