Sets or retrieves the height of the object in the units specified by the cascading style sheets (CSS) height attribute.
Syntax
HTML N/A Scripting object.style.posHeight [ = iHeight ]
Possible Values
iHeight Integer that specifies any valid floating-point number that uses the same length units as the height attribute. The property is read/write with no default value.
Expressions can be used in place of the preceding value(s), as of Microsoft® Internet Explorer 5. For more information, see Dynamic Properties.
Remarks
Unlike the height property, the posHeight property value is a floating-point number, not a string. Setting the posHeight property changes the value of the height, but leaves the units designator for the property unchanged.
For more information about how to access the dimension and location of objects on the page through the document object model, see Measuring Element Dimension and Location.
Example
This example uses the posHeight property to increase the height of the first IMG element by 10 units.
Sample Code
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JScript"> document.all.tags("IMG").item(0).style.posHeight += 10; </SCRIPT>
