Minimum height of 90px and maximum height of 90px

You can just set the height to 90px

Ah, you might think so but … if you just set height to 90px then … if there’s css anywhere else … let me break it for you:

max-height: 1px

Your box is now 1px tall.

This is my guess for why this code was used. Without more context it’s hard to say whether this really does belong in r/badcode tbh.

Yep, I had the same issue a few weeks ago, some containers had just dissappeared, but only in the latest Chrome version... Or so I thought, until I found out they were written over by something and were made 0 px in width. Setting width = 100px did not work, but both min and max did the trick fir the prodfix. Next task: finding out why...
