Hi Andy

This hack seems to work fine in my IE6 on SP2

curiously though why not use 1199 as the max for defaulting to 740? that way accounting for resized windows on higher than 800 screens e.g. in the cameronmoll version a window size of 850 wide will give a 1200 wide site....using 1199 works fine in my IE also

width: expression(document.body.clientWidth < 1199? "740px" :  
document.body.clientWidth > 1202? "1200px" : "auto");

  hi list

  I keep crashing IE with my tests, whilst this is fun in some ways,  
  it's not entirely productive...

  I'm using the

  width: expression(document.body.clientWidth < 742? "740px" :  
  document.body.clientWidth > 1202? "1200px" : "auto");

  hack from http://www.cameronmoll.com/archives/000892.html ,  
  apparently making sure the values are different ie. clientWidth <  
  742? "740px" not   clientWidth < 740? "740px"  should stop it  
  crashing, but it keeps doing it...

  anyone got any pearls of wisdom for me?

  Andy
