Hi all, Offlist, Wolfgang sent me a patch for \framed (which \eTD inherits from) that adds a minheight key, and Hans promised to add that to the next beta :) Best wishes, Taco

I am attempting to process html tables that are styled using css, and I have problem with the ‘height’ property. CSS (or rather, the html browser) interprets ‘height’ as if it was a “minheight”, and if the content does not fit, it will just enlarge the height until it does fit.
Needless to say: I want that same functionality from the ConTeXt table I am using to generate the PDF and not end up with text crossing row boundaries. And I cannot figure out how to do it, as neither bTABLE’s \bTD nor xtable’s \startxcell interpret a “minheight" parameter. And whatever I put in “height” becomes the absolute value of the cell height. Did I miss something? I cannot imagine that this problem has not come up before…
AFAIK, there is no option to do this. The closest option is `autowidth=force` for `\framed` etc. which forces `width` to behaves as `maxwidth`. It will be nice to explicitly add both minwidth/minheight and maxwidth/maxheight options to framed, etc.
