I use a custom-built asp.net control that renders to a DIV and has height=’0′

  • 0

I use a custom-built asp.net control that renders to a DIV and has ‘height=’0” hard-coded into the element (I know.. stupid). But I need to reset it – get rid of the height assignment somehow. Is this doable with CSS?

I can set the height to 100px for example, and it works. But that’s not what I want – I want the height assignment removed pretty much.

UPDATE: Using FireBug, I can see that CSS’s height gets overridden by the hard-coded one:

I guess there’s no way for me to resolve this besides removing the hard-coded height=0. Anyone else see an alternative?

  1. You might well need to use height:auto !important because the height attribute has a very high priority (IIRC).

    But ideally you would karate-kick that attribute out of there. Yuck.
