It’s fun to play with CSS over 10 years.
Year 1999: filter:blur();
Year 2009: background:url(data:image/png;base64);

I’ve posted a example about make min-width work on IE6 before, and this post is about giving you a bare bone template with min-width support so that you can simply grab the code for your layout easily.

Though the CSS / HTML seems tricky for some developers, I still think this a far better solution than the extremely expensive expression(); solution.
the template is available here http://www.hedgerwow.com/360/bugs/css-only-min_width_ie6_2..html

Update:this one works even better for me.

So much love & hate for IE6

Think differently.

An easy example to show how get font-size in pixel for fonts with Font Sizes like “large”, “1.2em”, “70%”.

:-D

In some cases, I may prefer ActiveX control to fix this instead of using filters

Example:

here are my updates for recent hacks about simulating  CSS “min-width” on IE6.

Let’s say the min-width is 750px, and you have a page (#page{ min-width:750px;});

1. If the width  of your page is “auto”,   then you need to add extra border-right:750px to BODY, then add margin-right:-750px to the #page to offset  the  extra border width  of  BODY .
   Guess what, you’ll get the min-width of 750px on IE for free.

   I’d love to thanks my co-worker, Matt Sweeney who showed me this great example before and all I did was to hide the extra border-color in my way.
   
   See live example and source codes:

2. If the page width will zoom by text-size, say  #page{ width:70em;}, then you may use  pixelWidth
   to achieve the same goal.

Really handy to me
