Hi everyone,

Trying to emulate max-width in IE with the width: expression() thing.

It’s worked fine for me before but I want to get a max-width of 75% for this div (my main centered container div).

So, the container div can never be bigger than 75% of the body’s width.

Here’s the clicky if you need it: [URL=“[http://icypenguin.ca/work/crystal-lake-homes/](http://icypenguin.ca/work/crystal-lake-homes/)”]clicky.
