@cootheadMar 03.2008 — Hi there Denoteone,

try it like this...
[color=navy]
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

<style type="text/css">
#mydiv {
width:760px;[color=purple]
min-height:550px;[/color]
border:1px solid #999;
margin:auto;
}
</style>

<!--[if lte IE 6]>
<style type="text/css">
#mydiv {
height:550px;
}
</style>
<![endif]-->

</head>
<body>

<div id="mydiv">

</div>

</body>
</html>
[/color]

@TheBearMayMar 03.2008 — For IE <= 6 you may also need to add a line of js code:

<i>
</i>window.onload = function (){
document.getElementById("mydiv").style.height=document.getElementById("mydiv").scrollHeight+"px"
};

Success!
