tmyonline Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 Hi guys, Firefox seems to have a bug with the <div> tag. Whenever using <div> tag in Firefox, I'm forced to specify the height of the <div>, otherwise, it won't work. Often, I don't know in advance as to how much content will be dumped into the <div>. Therefore, it's not desirable to specify the div height. Is there a way to style the <div> tag so that it automatically expands or contracts depending on the amount of content it holds at the time ? ( I know the <table> tag would do it but the <table> tag takes a long time to load, especially when it contains images. ) Any idea ? Thanks a lot.

haku Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 You don't have to do anything - div tags by default in all browsers automatically adjust their height to the content, unless you have manually set them to not do so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sticks464 Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 As haku said, div's will expand with content unless it is floated content. Floated content need to be cleared to push the div down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
