How to define minimum height for tbody in CSS

css, css-tables

Solution

Why you want to do this?

Min-height and height applies to block level elements and table isn't a block level element. Wrap your table inside a div (say div.table-wrap) and apply minimum height to that div.

If you don't want table layout isn't important to you, then just add `display:block` to the CSS of tbody.

Problem

I want to set a minimum height for tbody in CSS, even if no `<tr><td></td></tr>` in tbody, here is my code: ``` tbody{ height: 500px; min-height:500px; } ``` but it doesn't work. so what should I do to achieve this?
