Document Height- Help Javascript Gurus

Hi Javascript Gurus,

I need to specify the size of the left hand navigation bar dynamically based on the document size. I tried document.body.scrollHeight, but it does not give me the correct height of the document untill it is entirely loaded in the window.

Any idea how can I determine the document height before it gets displayed in the window so that I can adjust the height of the left menu accordingly.

Cheers
Sanjay

@AdamBrillAug 07.2003 — I don't know of a way to get that until the page has loaded... Couldn't you put run a function onload that would set up your menu? Or, better yet, use a menu that will work without having to place it with JS. ?

Success!
