Can someone help me figure out why these two scripts conflict in Firefox and Safari? They work fine in Internet Explorer, and they work fine in ALL browsers when they don’t have to work together on the same page. When they both need to work on the same page, it’s the [b]div/column resize
[b]Resize two Divs (columns) to be the same height:
[code]
// Replace ‘center’ ‘right’ and ‘left’ with the ID names of the columns you want to balance.
// The last one is there to show how you can add more columns. Just delete the ones you’re not using.
var divs = new Array(‘col1, ‘col2’);
// Initialize Scripts – is this a browser that understands DOM?
function scriptInit() { if (!document.getElementById) { return; } }
// Set up Event Listener
function addEvent(elm, evType, fn, useCapture) {
if (elm.addEventListener) { elm.addEventListener(evType, fn, useCapture); return true; }
else if (elm.attachEvent) { var r = elm.attachEvent(‘on’ + evType, fn); return r; }
else { elm[‘on’ + evType] = fn; }
}
// Start Column Script
function setTall() {
if (document.getElementById) { var maxHeight = 0; for (var i = 0; i < divs.length; i++) {
if (document.getElementById(divs[i]) != null)
{ var div = document.getElementById(divs[i]); div.style.height = null; if (div.offsetHeight > maxHeight) maxHeight = div.offsetHeight; }
}
for (var i = 0; i < divs.length; i++) {
if (document.getElementById(divs[i]) != null)
{ var div = document.getElementById(divs[i]); div.style.height = maxHeight + ‘px’; if (div.offsetHeight > maxHeight) { div.style.height = (maxHeight – (div.offsetHeight – maxHeight)) + ‘px’; } }
}
}
}
// Assign one of the columns to the TextResizeDetector.
function initTall() {
if (document.getElementById) { for (var i = 0; i < divs.length; i++)
{ if (document.getElementById(divs[i]) != null) { TextResizeDetector.TARGET_ELEMENT_ID = divs[i]; break; } }
setTall(); }
}
// Fire Events
addEvent(window, ‘load’, initTall, false);
addEvent(window, ‘resize’, setTall, false);
