Wie bekomme ich mehrere neben einander stehende DIV's auf gleiche Länge?

Lösung:

Eine von vielen Lösungen, vor allem eine einfache, ist es ein Script zu verwenden.

In den HEAD setzen wir:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/templates//javascript/equalcolumns.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

und in dieser Datei steht:

var ddequalcolumns=new Object()
//Input IDs (id attr) of columns to equalize. Script will check if each corresponding column actually exists:
ddequalcolumns.columnswatch=["right", "left", "left2", "right2"]

ddequalcolumns.setHeights=function(reset){
var tallest=0
var resetit=(typeof reset=="string")? true : false
for (var i=0; i<this.columnswatch.length; i++){
if (document.getElementById(this.columnswatch[i])!=null){
if (resetit)
document.getElementById(this.columnswatch[i]).style.height="auto"
if (document.getElementById(this.columnswatch[i]).offsetHeight>tallest)
tallest=document.getElementById(this.columnswatch[i]).offsetHeight
}
}
if (tallest>0){
for (var i=0; i<this.columnswatch.length; i++){
if (document.getElementById(this.columnswatch[i])!=null)
document.getElementById(this.columnswatch[i]).style.height=tallest+"px"
}
}
}

ddequalcolumns.resetHeights=function(){
this.setHeights("reset")
}

ddequalcolumns.dotask=function(target, functionref, tasktype){ //assign a function to execute to an event handler (ie: onunload)
var tasktype=(window.addEventListener)? tasktype : "on"+tasktype
if (target.addEventListener)
target.addEventListener(tasktype, functionref, false)
else if (target.attachEvent)
target.attachEvent(tasktype, functionref)
}

ddequalcolumns.dotask(window, function(){ddequalcolumns.setHeights()}, "load")
ddequalcolumns.dotask(window, function(){if (typeof ddequalcolumns.timer!="undefined") clearTimeout(ddequalcolumns.timer); ddequalcolumns.timer=setTimeout("ddequalcolumns.resetHeights()", 200)}, "resize")

Nun muss nur die hervorgehobene Zeile angepasst werden - also die ID's der DIV's eintragen und schon ist alles auf gleicher Länge!
