Making an container a minimum height 2

[1DMF]

how do you make a div with a border be a minimum height but allow it to grow as the content grows ?

So in my desired resolution all 4 boxes are equal height even though 1 box has much less content and should the text be enlarged they all grow together the same height.

seings cory & Vragabond just put the boot in about me using fixed heights how do I make something X high but grow with the content?

Use [tt]min-height[/tt]. It seems like a super easy solution, but IE does not cooperate -- it does not support it. You need to use a hack for IE to define [tt]height[/tt] just for IE (because IE treats height as min-height anyway) and use min-height for all other browsers.

http://www.cssplay.co.uk/boxes/minwidth.html

do some research yourself! that was the very first result when i typed "html css min-width" into google.
