i want to programatically make my page of varying height based on the
content. if you go to trinadoula.com you will see what i am talking
about. you'll see the mid section of the page is a bar that could be
stacked on top of itself over and over in a loop to make a variable
height page. how can i use php to analyze how tall the content is
(i.e. the text, or images) and then loop a image bar on top of itself
to make the page different heights? thanks for help! -jason

You can't be sure of the size of the content. For instance, I may use a
larger or smaller font than you expect. Or I may not have the default
font on my system. Either case can affect the size on my screen.

Basically you have no control over how it looks on my screen. All you
can do is make recommendations.

Rather, rethink your HTML and check groups like alt.html to figure out
how to make your page adjust itself.
