    <p>I have 3 divs inside a parent div, intended to be arranged like so:</p> <pre><code> ______________________________________ | | | HEADER | |______________________________________| ____ _______________________________ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | N | | | | A | | CONTENT | | V | | | | - | | | | B | | | | A | | | | R | | | | | | | | | | | |____| |_______________________________| </code></pre> <p>The <code>#header</code> is fixed height, so I'm having no issues with it.</p> <p>However, the <code>#content</code> div's, well, content, is dynamic, depending on the page that is loaded. I want <code>#nav-bar</code> to match the height of <code>#content</code> at all times, but I haven't been able to manage it.</p> <p>I want the min-height of <code>#content</code> and <code>#nav-bar</code> to be 100% of the screen height (so they take up the full height of the screen at minimum at all times), but then as <code>#content</code> grows beyond that, I want <code>#nav-bar</code> to grow accordingly.</p> <p>I've gotten <code>#nav-bar</code>'s height to grow, but not at exactly the same value as <code>#content</code>, so their heights are still mismatched.</p> <p>Here is the relevant code I have in place, and <a href="http://jaddl.clanteam.com/index2.php" rel="nofollow">the actual page in question is here</a>.</p> <p><strong>HTML:</strong></p> <pre class="lang-html prettyprint-override"><code>&lt;div id='container'&gt; &lt;div id='center-panel'&gt; &lt;div id='top-banner'&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id='nav-bar'&gt; &lt;?php echo get_nav_list(); ?&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id='header'&gt;&lt;span id='fact-tag'&gt;current points leader&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span id='fact-value'&gt;4&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div id='content'&gt;Lorem ipsum... &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>CSS:</strong></p> <pre class="lang-css prettyprint-override"><code>html, body { background-color: #ccc; min-height: 100%; margin: auto; font-family: 'Noto Sans', 'Tahoma', sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: #666; } #container { height: 100%; overflow: scroll; } #center-panel { margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; width: 800px; background-color: #fff; min-height: 100%; } #header { /*top bar*/ height: 33px; max-height: 33px; text-align: right; color: #aaa; padding: 0px 15px 0px 160px; font-size: 18pt; border: 2px dashed blue; } #header span#fact-tag { font-weight: 700; } #header span#fact-value { display: inline-block; min-width: 40px; background-color: #ccc; margin-left: 10px; color: #444; padding: 0px 3px 0px 3px; } #nav-bar { /*left bar*/ float: left; width: 110px; text-align: center; height: inherit; font-family: 'Oxygen', 'Tahoma', sans-serif; padding: 33px 0px 0px 0px; border: 2px dashed red; } #nav-bar ul { /*main menu*/ list-style-type: none; text-align: left; font-size: 10pt; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; } #nav-bar &gt; ul &gt; li { /*main menu item*/ min-height: 35px; background-color: #444; color: #ccc; border-left: 6px solid #444; border-bottom: 3px solid #666; cursor: pointer; } #nav-bar ul &gt; li &gt; ul { /*sub-menu*/ display: none; } #nav-bar ul &gt; li &gt; ul &gt; li { /*sub-menu item*/ min-height: 25px; background-color: #555; border-bottom: 3px solid #444; font-size: 10pt; cursor: pointer; } #nav-bar ul &gt; li &gt; ul &gt; li &gt; ul &gt; li { /*third-level menu item*/ border: none; min-height: 10px; font-size: 8pt; cursor: pointer; } #content { /*central content area*/ padding: 60px 45px 30px 160px; border: 2px dashed green; } </code></pre> <p><strong>Javascript:</strong></p> <pre class="lang-js prettyprint-override"><code>$('#nav-bar ul li').on('click', function() { $(this).css('border-left-color', '#ad9557').siblings().css('border-left-color', '#666'); $(this).children().slideDown('fast'); $(this).siblings().children('ul').slideUp('fast'); }); $('#nav-bar').css('height', $('#container').height()); </code></pre>

    2. COYour example page and your ASCII drawing are inconsistent with the placement of the header - by 'header' in your ASCII drawing, do you mean the element '#top-banner'?

    3. CO@robyaw The ascii drawing is my intended result, not what you actually see on the page today (hence, why I'm here asking for help). :) Ignore #top-banner, it's fine and just adding some padding to the top of all elements within #center-panel.

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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
