Just a quick question.

I've been skinning dotnetnuke sites for about six months now, I recently swapped over to using pure css rather than a tabular form of skinning and seem to have discovered a slight issue when creating div elements with a min-height of < 12px (such as a float clear). No matter what I try the div element maintains a minimum 12px height. The problem only seems to effect div elements when using Internet Explorer and only with skins developed for dotnetnuke. Has any one else observed this problem? Is there a fix for it?

Although in most cases it has been possible to code around the issue I've spent a reasonable ammount of time wading through forums, blogs and tutorials for dnn but have not found a solution.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have experienced a lot of IE problems with skins, but these are IE bugs and they are all reproducable in plain HTML.

If you cannot reproduce this in a single HTML file and it is really only the case in DNN, then it must be that you are inheriting some CSS from instance default.css, or the skin itself.

Hi Jeremy,

this might probably caused by something within the IE CSS parsing.
I've found a 'hack' for making sure that Elements do have this 'min-height' attribute in all Browsers
 

#container  { height: 300px;
height: auto;
min-height: 300px;
}

Thanks for the help guys!

Unfortunately whilst both answers have set me further about finding a solution to the problem, one is yet to make itself apparent. I'm in the process of re-creating the issue to highlght it further (in a template in both DNN and a bespoke web app). I shall post the links over the next week or so (company policy permitting).

Timo, would you rather I was doing this through the issue tracker?

Thanks again for the assistance.

Jeremy, it's Fine to discuss it here first, a link to an example would be great.
