The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

How do I layout divs that will expand to take up the available veritcal space.

Asked by bakum in Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), JavaScript

How do I layout divs that will expand to take up the available veritcal space.  I have a master table with two columns.  In the left column are two divs, on on top of the other, the right column is one div.  The information contained in each Div is variable and can differ quite a bit in height, however, what I want is for the divs to expand vertically to the bottom of the table row, so they balance visually.  Currently I've been doing it with javascript to very poor effect.  It often doesn't really work I suspect due to the differing box models causing my javascript calculations of container heights to be different in different browsers.   but I'm not sure.  What'd I'd prefer is some magical CSS way to just have the stupid divs expand as they should in the first place.  Why is this so hard?  It shouldn't be this hard.  Should it?

Thanks!
