Match element heights - 5/11/2007 12:28:22   
I'm creating a dwt, and have a left panel and content panel within my container. It's at www.lvm-web-design/csoa. The master,style1 and home pages are the ones I'm working with at the moment, but there are a lot of other old pages in the links, etc. Ignore those, please.

I want the left (red) and content (white )panels to expand to hold the changing amount of text within them, and I want both of them always to be the height of whichever has more content. I'm not having success with getting the two elements to stay equal. I'd appreciate some help.

Thanks. Linda

Hi

As per one of the suggestions on Brian's link - use Faux Columns to achieve this effect. Easiest most reliable way of achieving this.

I think what you basically want to do is a setup similar then that below.
Try to put your content in the divs and follow the setups where the divs are located "within" other divs....
