The 'max-width' property is properly what you need. Unfortunately it does
not work in IE6 and lower (don't know about IE7 - I hoped they fixed
this...). For IE there are fixes, but these require JavaScript to emulate
this property - IE7 (not to be confused with Internet Explorer 7!) comes to
my mind. You'll still have to worry about IE users without JavaScript
though...
