How Do I Find The Height Of A <div>?
Nov 28, 2005I have some <div>s, which all have style.height = auto, or don't have a style.height, so they default to auto.
How can I find out the absolute height of the <div>?

I am working on a UI that, when you click on a menu option, a div opens and show three divs inside. These divs all have different
heights. The heights are based on the divs content.The problem I'm having is... how do I measure what the divs height should be? IE, how do I grab the height for a div BEFORE it has had any style applied to it.
How can I find the height and width of a webpage? Say I want to make
sure someone's webpage is within an 800X600 viewing area. Width is the
most important but if I can get width, I should also be able to get
height.
I don't need to modify the page in anyway. Just get the width and
height. I can reference the page in an iframe, cfhttp (CFMX) or
something if it needs to be on my server.
Does anyone know any js code to find the whole height of a web page?
i am trying to make an image that moves from the top of the page to the bottom like a marqee. if i use document.body.offsetHeight to tell the image how far to move before returning to the top, the image only goes as far as the window height not the whole page so if you scroll down the image never reaches the bottom.
can anyone please tell me code to find the total page height or a good substitute for the marquee tag?
P.S. this is the code i'm using to act on an image placed at the top of the page with the variable winH found using document.body.offsetHeight:
var Timer1;
function down()
{
document.getElementById("zip").style.pixelTop += 2;
if (document.getElementById("zip").style.pixelTop > winH)
{
clearInterval(Timer1);
document.getElementById("zip").style.pixelTop -= (winH);
Timer1 = setInterval("down()", 15);
}
}

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an image that I set to have a width of 100%. I want it to be no higher than the screen height. Its inside a div which itself has no height limit set. So I thought I could set the image height to screen.height. But when I do that, it seems to be larger than the visible client area of Internet Explorer. I want it to fit within that space. I realize the image might be distorted by doing that, but thats OK.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a div that is float: left and has a bunch of divs inside it. Those divs inside are all position: relative. They also have z-index values. I want to know the actual height of the outer div's content when I add a div.
Here's the problem:
Code:
<div class="outer">
<div class="something_With_Z_Index_Of_Zero">Something</div>
<div class="something_With_Z_Index_Of_One">Something</div>
</div>
(NOTE: Both inner divs have a height of 20px)
When I ask for either: outerDiv.offsetHeight or outerDiv's computedStyle.height, both give me 40 (or 40px). This is actually not right as the two inner divs are placed one over the other. How would I figure out the proper height?
I have a page with div layer where i insert text with innerHTML attribute into it. Depending on the ammount of text i have the HEIGHT of the layer is changing.if i leave the css part of it with no HEIGHT atribute at all, browser will not automaticaly calculate it and returns empty string on request layerName.style.height.if i assign some value to it("..height: 200px;..") it will not change it after uploading the text. It will change the size but on request layerName.style.height i'll get same 200px.

I am in need of a JS script that matches the "li" height with the un-defined height of a absolute positioned block? Sort of like a matching columns script - is this possible? It's for IE6! Oh ya, and it's dynamic un-defined height. I only want it to match the height on hover. Here is a little test page I put together.[code]

I've made some slideToggle div's at the right (http://nekodesuka.org/offbeat/), and inside that div there are two divs. One div has an image, the other some text.

I don't need the character height. I need the height of a paragraph that is wrapped once or more inside a div.

both of the above examples worked fine in firefox but not in IE 6 or 7. IE writes a zero. firefox writes the actual height (261).

It's a nutty idea I suppose, but here's the backstory: I have a client
who has a site whose content is being generated by some crappy database
software he is pretty much married to. The site looks like the Web era
1994, and he wants to give it a facelift, but get this -- he doesn't
want to change the css stylesheet that the database company is supplying
him with, because everytime they issue an update to their software,
there's a new stylesheet, and he doesn't want to have to integrate their
changes into whatever stylesheet he's using. Whatever.
So I mulled this over for a while and suggested that we put the db crap
into an iframe and then surround it with a nice, well-designed margin
that matches that of the larger institution. Far from perfect, but I
thought it was a pretty good idea. Unfortunately he says the iframe
can't have a scrollbar -- it has to fit all the content of the page.
So I made the iframe really big, and his response: oh, but it has all
this ugly whitespace at the bottom.
Long story short (too late), I have to figure a way to adjust the height
of the iframe on the fly. I've got no idea if this is humanly possible.
Any clever ideas?
