    How can I know the height of certain layer?


    See, I defined my layer as:

    <DIV id="mylayer" style="width:100px left:100px top 100px">SomeText</DIV>

    For some reasons, I can't set its height at designtime. But I will have to
    use its height property. How can I do this?

    I've tried document.all.mylayer.style.height, but this won't work.

    First, you need to use semicolons to delimit the properties, although I don't
    know if this holds true in inline styles. I always link my stylesheets.
    Easier to manage the content. You can use in the head:
    #mylayer {height: 50px; width:100px; left: 50px;
    cursor: n-resize}
    </HEAD>

    <BODY>

    <DIV ID="mylayer">do de do BLAH!</DIV>

    Try Danny Goodman's Dynamic HTML , O'Reilly. Great book.
