Webmaster Forum / HTML, CSS, Scripts / CSS / July 2007all div elements with the same (flexible) width
Hello, I have two or more div elements which have the same min-width. <div class="wrapper"> <div class="element01">text01</div> <div class="element02">text02</div> ... </div> In a browser with normal font size all div elements have the same width (min-width). When I change the font size in browser some (but not all) div elements become more largely than min-width. I get different widths for the div elements. How can I get the same width for all div elements with every font size? I don't want to work with tables. Thanks for your hints, Kai > How can I get the same width for all div elements with every font > size? You should start by posting a URL to a working page, with the CSS -- not a fragment that's only the HTML and includes none of the relevant CSS at all. Otherwise it's a trivial exercise in CSS to set the width of the <div>. Normally the initial value for the width property is "auto", which causes its width to be calculated automatically on the basis of the size of the content inside it. If you don't want that, just set it to something else. Any of the length units will do this, but the usual recommendation for em units rather pixels means that it works better when text is re-sized. >> How can I get the same width for all div elements with every font >> size?

Only for elements with shrink-to-fit widths (floats, tables, absolutely positioned stuff). Otherwise auto width is set "greedily" so the outer margin width of the element fills its available width completely. > How can I get the same width for all div elements with every font > size? A URL would be helpful, but generally speaking you can use % widths: 50% each for 2 columns, 33% for 3 columns, etc.  SignatureBerg |
