Hi Rob –

Love the plugin. However I’ve got a small problem. The plugin doesn’t seem to work with the jQuery.js version that my website uses (v1.3.2). Doesn’t work with the latest version either (v1.4.1).

I’ve tested it with the version that your website uses (v1.2.6) and it works fine.

However, will this break my website if I load 2 separate versions of jQuery.js in the section? My website runs Wordpress 2.9.1.

As you can guess, I know nothing about jquery/javascript. Hope you can clear my confusion and concerns.

Thanks in advance.

[...] The EqualHeights jQuery Plugin “Creating equal-height columns with CSS is sometimes a bear. But who needs the hassle of faux columns, “clear” divs and the rest? With this bit of jQuery, you can easily equalize the heights of any group of elements.” [...]

Thank you for the plugin! I was pulling my hair out trying to get a Grid960 layout to get equal columns. I will be using this script in the future.

An addendum to my original comment. It’s this line in the Javascript that causes the problem:
$(this).height(tallest).css(“overflow”,”visible”);

When set to “auto” it works fine, but displays a scrollbar (in IE and Firefox)
When set to “visible” I have that word wrap issue.
When set to “hidden” the box still doesn’t stretch correctly, but at least the text is hidden.

As a potential fix I’ve set the Javascript to overflow hidden, and defined a minimum height of 55px, but I wish there was a better solution…

Thanks again!
