3 column site, stretch divs to largest column. Fit content.

Hi there.

I've searched the forum but could find what I was looking for. I have a tree column site. The 3 columns are in an outer div. I would like that the outer div (and the other 2 divs) to stretch with the content of the highest div. I saw some examples to get a 100% height by adding 100% to the body,html but that isn't what i want.

I just want the div's in the outer div to stretch with the (variable)height of the highest div.

Can anyone help? Thanks!
