Only thing I can think of is it might have something to do with the
hasLayout property... is that set to true? It's an IE internal prop that
cannot be set explicitly...

Subject: [Rails-spinoffs] how can I get offsetHeight in IE?

Ok,
        This is driving me nuts.  I am trying to determine the height of
an element in IE, but offsetHeight returns undefined.  I looped through
all of the attributes that contain the word 'height', both in the
element and in the element.style, but they are all undefined.  Is there
a better way to determine the rendered height of an element?  Is there
something I need to do to the element so that the offsetHeight gets
calculated?  Any help would be appreciated.  Looking through the
scriptaculous and prototype functions, it seems they all rely on
offsetHeight and have no alternate means of determining it.  Am I just
SOL?

Greg
