element height

[anarchist]

I need to find the height of an element on my page so I can position an image at the bottom

element.height gives undefined
and element.style.height give me a blank even though the height is set with the stylesheet, its currently a known value but I plan to set it to 100% so will need to know the actual value

is there anyway to do this simply?

element.innerHeight

thanks but no luck, thats undefined

if I set the height with height= in the tag would that help rather thean using my stylesheet?

thinking along the lines of innerHeight I tried scroll height, which gave me half the size of the element:confused: but I brought up interdevs help and that had a see also of offsetHeight which works fine now:)

[crs]

Ups...

I meant offsetHeight and misstyped with innerHeight.

Sorry

didnt realise it was an ie only property when I tested it, we're not supporting netscape at the minute so not a problem, would be nice if all the browsers supported everything, rather than us having to write twice as much code at least to get things to work
