jQuery Simple Equal Heights

Version 1.5.2

Summary

Simple jQuery plugin to equalize heights of multiple elements on a page.

Author

Matt Banks ( @mattbanks / kernelcreativemedia.com / mattbanks.me )

Usage

Include jquery.equalheights.min.js after calling jQuery in the footer. Alternatively, include in your plugins.js file if using HTML5 Boilerplate.

Alternatively, install with bower:

bower install jquery.equalheights

Auto Initialize

Add data-equal="MYELEMENTS" to the parent container, where MYELEMENTS is div, section, li, whatever you'd like. See the example for more information.

Manually Initialize

$('.yourelements').equalHeights();

Select whatever elements need equal height.

Caveats

If using @font-face or Google Web Fonts, you may need to wrap the function call in a setTimeout for 100ms-200ms (jQuery.height() needs to fire after the font is rendered to properly calculate the height).

Requirements/Browsers

Tested with jQuery 1.7.x.

Works in IE6+, Chrome 14+, Safari 4+, Firefox 3.0+, Opera 10+.

Examples

See example.html in examples folder.
