Question

I have a form I’m floating. When there is an error, via jquery, I’m adding some content to a p within the form. However, the form doesn’t vertically resize to fit the new content. Is there something I have to do to get a floated element to resize when the content within it changes?

Answer 1

Do you have height or other css styling applied that would prevent it from vertically resizing?

Also, what browser(s) is it happening in? It may be a browser bug.

If the

is floated, too, then depending on the styling (position: absolute), its dimensions may not be considered to be ‘in’ the form.
