This property allows a minimum width to be set for an element box. The
calculation for the element's width may be greater than this value, but if
the value falls below this value it will recompute the width based on the
'min-width' value. If the value of 'min-width' is greater than the value of
'max-width', the 'max-width' property value becomes the 'min-width' value.
If the calculated value for the 'width' property is less than the 'min-width'
value, the calculations are done again using the 'min-width' value as the
value for the 'width' property.
Additionally, the browser may have its
own minimum allowable width for a specific element type. If the specified
'min-width' is less than this value for an element, the browser default minimum
width may be used in its place.
