Can you specify somehow a maximum width?

[timemachine]

Let's say, I have a box...

#wrap {width:860px; text-align:center; margin:0 auto;}

Can I set it up that way, that a minimum is not important, but maximum
would not exceed 860 px?

So the page will fit any small montor but on huge ones will not go wider
than specified width?

TIA

For browsers that correctly implement CSS (at the 2.1 level at least), this
might work:

#wrap {max-width: 860px; text-align:center; margin:0 auto;}

width, min-width, and max-width are three different properties. Take a
look at:

Sounds like max-width is what you might want; width alone will cause
scrollbars to come up for those with smaller than 860px wide browsers,
(often not a good idea!); min-width is quite what you don't sound like
you need!
