RE: FN-FORUM: Div Height 100%

date posted 9th January 2006 10:23

I know what you mean - first, before I forget - your own site is a bit on
the wonk in Firefox on PC.

With the height thing, the only way I know is to use fixed sized containers
and then use variable divs within. I will be very interested to see the
responses to this one as it is one of the main reasons I stay away from CMS
that doesn't employ the strictest of content 'rules' to avoid the
uninitiated 'redesigning' your layout for you.

Hi,

Coding a new site with 3 columns using XHTML & CSS. I would like each
column to be the same size, however, the column will only be as big as
the content defines, so if the content of each column is different, so
too is the height.

This has been a bugbear of mine since I dropped tabled layouts a couple
of years ago, I still don't have a nice solution for the problem.

Any idea how to achieve this without using tables, fixed height columns
or quirks hacks?
