I misread the original response from Marius. Is the only solution to set a fixed height on the element? Is there a way to get the browser to calculate this height by itself, maybe by doing some magic with z- index, showing the element behind the reset of the page, hiding it, and then showing it again where you want it? Element.getHeight, and Element.getDimensions, AFAICT, only return the height from the CSS, they don't attempt to calculate what it should be if there isn't a fixed height. I've not had much luck in the past with setting a fixed height and having it look correctly in more than one browser. Does anyone have tips regarding this? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.
