SYNTAX

CSS


            min-height: value;

JS


            object.style.minHeight = "value";

VALUES


            <'min-height'> = auto | <length-percentage> | min-content | max-content | fit-content( <length-percentage> )


            auto

Automatically specified by the user agent.


            <length-percentage> = [ <length> | <percentage> ]


            <length>

Specifies the length using a number followed by a unit of measurement.


            <percentage>

Specifies the percentage using a number followed by a percent sign (%).


            min-content

Represents the largest min-content contribution of the items occupying the track.


            max-content

Represents the largest max-content contribution of the items occupying the track.


            fit-content()

Represents the formula max(minimum, min(limit, max-content)), where minimum represents an auto minimum (which is often, but not always, equal to a min-content minimum), and limit is the track sizing function passed as an argument to fit-content(). This is essentially calculated as the smaller of minmax(auto, max-content) and minmax(auto, limit).
