I am playing with some JS code.

There is a variable: var ContentHeight = 200; that sets the height of a div box.

What can I put instead of the 200 to make the div box expand to the size of the content. AUTO doesn't work.

thanks.

You can put 100%, but you need to remember that the height needs to be set to the parent control that the div is in or that won't work.

Either leave it empty or

Code:

var ContentHeight = 'auto';

AND

Code:

var ContentHeight = 200;

should be

Code:

var ContentHeight = '200px';

to set the height correctly.
