OK, so I tried this exact technique (in replacement of using
"minmax.js"), and it does not have the desired effect.
While it does keep IE from allowing the body to be shrunk below 700px,
it also _always_ displays at 700px, instead of growing to match any
larger window size. What am I missing?
Also, as stated in the quote, it does not restrict the browser window
from being resized at all, it only restricts the content from being
resized below the specified size. Sizing the browser window to anything
narrower than 700px causes a horizontal scroll bar to be displayed, as
expected.
