/*-------------------------------------------------------------------- * JQuery Plugin: "EqualHeights" & "EqualWidths" * by: Scott Jehl, Todd Parker, Maggie Costello Wachs (http://www.filamentgroup.com) * * Copyright (c) 2024 Filament Group * Licensed under GPL (http://www.opensource.org/licenses/gpl-license.html) * * Description: Compares the heights or widths of the top-level children of a provided element and sets their min-height to the tallest height (or width to widest width). Sets in em units by default if pxToEm() method is available. * Dependencies: jQuery library, pxToEm method (article: http://www.filamentgroup.com/lab/retaining_scalable_interfaces_with_pixel_to_em_conversion/) * Usage Example: $(element).equalHeights(); Optional: to set min-height in px, pass a true argument: $(element).equalHeights(true); * Version: 2.0, 07.24.2008 * Changelog: * 08.02.2007 initial Version 1.0 * 07.24.2008 v 2.0 - added support for widths --------------------------------------------------------------------*/ $.fn.equalHeights = function(px) { $(this).each(function(){ var currentTallest = 0; $(this).children().each(function(i){ if ($(this).height() > currentTallest) { currentTallest = $(this).height(); } }); if (!px || !Number.prototype.pxToEm) currentTallest = currentTallest.pxToEm(); //use ems unless px is specified // for ie6, set height since min-height isn't supported if ($.browser.msie && $.browser.version == 6.0) { $(this).children().css({'height': currentTallest}); } $(this).children().css({'min-height': currentTallest}); }); return this; }; // just in case you need it... $.fn.equalWidths = function(px) { $(this).each(function(){ var currentWidest = 0; $(this).children().each(function(i){ if($(this).width() > currentWidest) { currentWidest = $(this).width(); } }); if(!px || !Number.prototype.pxToEm) currentWidest = currentWidest.pxToEm(); //use ems unless px is specified // for ie6, set width since min-width isn't supported if ($.browser.msie && $.browser.version == 6.0) { $(this).children().css({'width': currentWidest}); } $(this).children().css({'min-width': currentWidest}); }); return this; };
