Using max-height on DIV element

问题:

I have a DIV element that is set to contain a table element.

The table element will have anywhere from 0 to upwards of 350 rows.

I thought the easiest way to size this DIV element was to apply the max-height property so the DIV element would grow as content was added and add a scroll bar once the content exceeds the max-height property.

Code:

<div style="max-height:209px;overflow:auto;">
     <table>
         <tr><td>CONTENT</td></tr>
     </table>
</div>

What I get instead is that when the content reaches the max-height limit, instead of applying the overflow property, the div element just keeps growing.

Of course this is only happening in IE7. Firefox and Safari work as designed.

edit: okay, here's the entire HTML page, ctrl+f "distances" for the area that I'm having problems with.

says that max-height doesn't work with tables. try removing the table that is inside your div.



回答2:

IE has supported max-height since IE7 — but only in Standards (AKA Strict) mode.

Make sure you have a Doctype that triggers standards mode as the first thing in your document. (Quirks mode can screw up a lot of things, so never write a document without a Standards mode triggering Doctype unless you have a very very good reason to do so).



回答3:

Try setting just the height, and overflow to 'scroll'. Visually, there may not be a difference between the outter-box being full-height, and it not being full-height. If that is the case, I would simply refrain from using max-height in place of height.

Could you show us a bit more of your code, or perhaps an online demonstration? I'd be interested in seeing some of the css, and the doctype.



回答4:

In addition to max-wdith, you may use the following expression to make sure it is cross browser compatible: 

width: expression(this.width > 400 ? "400px" : true);
height: expression(this.height > 400 ? "400px" : true)

reference: http://www.fastechws.com/tricks/web/image-max-width-height.php



回答5:

What version of IE7 are you using? Max-height support wasn't added until beta 2.

The scrollbar shows up in the Compatibility View (the IE7 engine) in IE8.

Are you sure you aren't using IE6?



回答6:

I just copy and pasted your code, and then dropped in a php loop to create 200 rows or just 2 and it behaves the same in IE 7, Safari, and Firefox.

You probably aren't declaring a doctype, that creates the problem you're describing in my test.

Or in your real code you haven't properly defined overflow:auto. Your issue is exactly what would happen if that was the case.

It's defined here in the question, but maybe not your code.
