IE-expressions take their width from the browser-window, and set the
resulting values on the element. At least that's how they act.
If I've managed to visualize your layout / problem, you may have more
luck if you try something like this:
---
#container { width: expr.....
#container iframe { width: expression(documentElement.clientWidth
<642? "630px" : "98%" ); }
---
This will give IE-win its percentage-width, without affecting the other
expression. However, IE's calculations are not flawless, so you may have
to look at both expressions.
When the browser-window is smaller than 642px, the iframe will hold at
630px, else it will span 98% of its container. 630px is close to 98% of
642 (if I'm awake), so the jog shouldn't be much. Trim those values -
all 3 if necessary - until it look alright.
It is often better to use a percentage instead of 'auto', and trim the
"___px" value on sight. The result get less jumpy that way.
Need some examples? You'll find them here:
