trying again - this never arrived! -------- Original Message -------- Subject: equal height columns Date: Mon, 16 Apr 2007 12:42:04 +0100 From: Designer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org
Hi all, I need some javascript/DOM help in setting a CSS height. I've got a div called grid and two columns inside that div (left and right). I have a standards version which works fine using display : table and display : table-cell, but for IE I want to put a conditional comment in which will float the columns. In addition, I'd like to use the grid.offset.height and set all divs to that height by defining #grid div. I've tried putting a figure (in pixels) for the height of #grid div, and that solves the problem, but I don't want to have to know the height, I want the page to work it out for itself. I've tried this: <!--[if IE]> <style type="text/css"> #grid div {height : expression( parseint(grid.offset.height)+"px")} .left{float : left; } .right{float : right;} </style> <![endif]--> It doesn't work! Anyone know the answer? Many thanks. -- Bob www.gwelanmor-internet.co.uk ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *******************************************************************
