J

jpmorin196

Hi im working on a web project for school and i cant get something
working...

I have a graph that i would like the height to be dynamic depending on
the height of a cell in a table (td)

the td has an id and no defined height because it is not fixed and can
be different.

i have tried many things and it always give me 0 (offsetHeight,
innerHeight...)

Anyone can help me?

Thank you!

clientHeight?

Btw, you can see all the javascript properties of any element using the
Firefox DOM inspector.

Is there anything in the cell to begin with and is the table positioned?
(-A working/demo url would help.)

Did you try BootNic's example? Works in MSIE5.0+ NN7.1+ Moz & FF and
Opera...

Now it will not work in legacy 4.x browsers and fails in the WebTV/MSN
TV views, so what are you testing with? Lets see a URL
