[jQuery] Available Screen Real Estate
Thanks much, Paul! That worked a charm.
Essentially what I'm doing is attempting to place a DIV, among other content, in a page with a fixed masthead and footer. If this DIV's contents make the page longer than the available screen real estate, I want the DIV to become scrollable (using overflow:auto). The trick is that the other content is variable, so I'm working out a means to manipulate the max-height of the DIV accordingly (available screen real estate minus the total of the dimensions of the other content). With the plugin you've pointed me to, I've got it working great with Firefox.
Now, if only IE would behave properly ... ;)
