    <p>I have a huge scrollable area. In one section I have a grid of thumbnails. When clicked, the thumb is cloned and animates out to the center of the screen. The cloned image then fades out and the box grows bigger then loads the relevant article to the thumb that was clicked using (eq)index. </p> <p>The article loads in fine so i know that i am targeting it correctly, but because each article has a different height according to its content, i need the box to resize the height of the corresponding article before it appears. I can't seem to get this to work. I tried to pass the height into a variable and animate the height to this value, but it seems to return 0 as the box animates its height to 0. If i set a pixel value it's fine, but that leaves me with a lot of white space at the bottom.\ Code I am using is:</p> <pre><code>var index = newsover.index($(this)); //cycle through read more links var offset = $(this).offset(); //Get the thumb position to animate from var animFinished = false; //Create boolean to check when ani finishes $('#news-articles .news-article').hide().eq(index).show(); // show the article for the corresponding link and hide the others var article = $('#news-articles .news-article').eq(index); var articleClone = article.clone(true); // clone the article for the corresponding link var articleHeight = article.height(); </code></pre> <p>It is then coded to animate to the center and fades out the thumb image which all works fine. Then:</p> <pre><code>//expand the box further from the center expandFurther = function() { expandedItem.animate({ width: 875, height: articleHeight, marginTop: -articleHeight/2, marginLeft: -875/2, }, { duration: DDBR.constant.ITEM_ANIMATION_SPEED, easing: DDBR.constant.ITEM_ANIMATION_EASING, queue: false, complete: function() { animFinished = true; if (animFinished) { loadContent(); } } }) }; //END expandFurther function </code></pre> <p>Any help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks in advance.</p>

    1. COInstead of trying to figure out the size before it appears, adjust the height after it appears. A lot of slide show plugins do this. When switching from one photo to the next, the area that holds the photos is resized.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
