all i wanted is a div with 3px height!
but ****en explorer will not do it
i've found that when i put inside this div a 1x1px image it DOES get down to size.
how do i force IE to show a div with very small heights (without the 1px image) ?this is getting WEIRD !!
after some experiments i've found that i can put inside the div a comment <!-- -->
and this will be enough !!yeah i also tried that..how weird..no explanation..(well yes, apart that IE sucks)I supose: No content = no height.hmm, if you give it a height of 3px, content or not, it should be 3px high.
If it had no height at all, i would understand that it could be related to the lack of content..but it has some random height, which isn't margin/padding related..weirdIE/Win won't let an element have a height that is less than its line-height.
you can decrease the font-size and line-height OR use overflow:hidden
IE6 is an antiquated piece of junk. (Read the quote.)And I think it smells of elderberry.IE wont let you have the height less than the line height IF the content is text. Even a single blank character counts as text. By NOT having any text content you can adjust the height to as small as you want.felgall, did you not read my reply?
