IE7 ignoring min-height

Hi all
I have a strange proplem with IE7 on this site
http://www.francinejordi.ch/Fanbereich
It ignores my min-height.
the CSS is following

Does anyone now this problem? I was sure IE7 would support min-height or at least the IE hack.

Thanks in advance

IE7 will likely take the 530px value. Also just for reference, you can omit the "div" from your rule since by definition IDs can only be located once on a page.

Hi Ryan
thanks for your answer. Well I removed the "div" from the statement but IE7 still is not taking the 530px height into account I don’t know why.

Is it taking the 500px into account? I don’t recall off the top of my head whether or not IE7 supports min-height... I tend to think it does now that I think about it. IE6 and below definitely does not and your CSS would feed an effective min-height of 530px to it.

You may just need to buckle down and use a Conditional Comment to feed the intended height to IE7.

I guess this could be the solution. IE 6 is properly working IE7 doesen’t consider to take any height at all.

a conditional stylesheet did the trick, but not on the same div. Don’t ask me why does not really make sense to me.

Wouldn’t the height: auto override the other height directives in browsers that understand the !important declaration?

as far as I know, auto overwrites the given height for IE in the height element

I think you should have the !important in the min-height rule. If I recall correctly, that will make it override the following height: auto statement, except in IE6 which doesn’t recognize the !important declaration, so in IE6 the auto will be used.

IE6 does recognize !important, just not for when there are two rules within the same selector. Handy eh?
