min-width and max-width with jQuery

Question

How to emulate for ie6?

Answer 1

to emulate max-width:

var maxWidth = 300;    
if ( $('SELECTOR').width() > maxWidth ) $('SELECTOR').width(maxWidth);

the same can be applied for width, height, min and max with minor adjustments.

Answer 2

Just adding to codeburger's anwser that you might as well put this in an external JS file or JS block that's shown only to IE6 via conditional comments.
