[Dynapi-Help] PanelBar and auto sizing

[Bruce T. <blu...@ya...>]

Now that I have my web app up and running w/old fashion HTML/CGI techniques, I've decided to start phasing in some DHTML using DynAPI.
 
One thing I was trying to do is change a list of tables into a stacker-panelbar combo.  The tables aren't all the same size, so I can't reliably use a fixed height.  Is there anyway to get panelbar to auto size (in the height direction mainly)?
 
Also, can it be done without building the stacker/panels in the head section (built in body).  Currently the stacker/panels work attached to an inline Dynlayer and built within the body. But I need to use a fixed height for the panel content.
 
Thanks for any advise.

Hi Bruce,

I had a similar requirement, an my "quick& dirty" solution
was to modify the PanelBar widget and subclass it.  See:
http://www.mail-archive.com/dyn...@li.../msg05775.html

Raymond subsequently suggested using the DynLayer "setAutoSize"
function to achieve the same effect, but I haven't been able to
get this to work yet.
