I have a div ("inner") nested inside another div ("outer"). The min-
height only is set for both, so height: auto; is set by default. When
I fill the inner div up with content and its height grows larger than
the height of the outer div, the outer div does not realize and
remains at its min-height. I want the outer div to adjust
automatically to height of the inner div. Please help!!
