Setting Element Height Dynamically

There are times when you need to control the height of an element based on the screen size. However youcan control the user setup, and of course there are browser differences so this snippet handles browser and object detection and sets the height during page load and for any re-sizing event.

An example of the snippet in action

  var minorOffset = (document.all)? 25 : 38;
   function setHgt()
   {
      var sHGT;
      srcobj=document.getElementById('main');
      if (self.innerHeight)
      {
	   sHGT = self.innerHeight;
	}
      else
      { 
         if (document.documentElement && document.documentElement.clientHeight)
         {
	      sHGT = document.documentElement.clientHeight;
         }
         else
         {
            if (document.body)
            {
              sHGT = document.body.clientHeight;
            }
         }
      }
      sHGT=sHGT-(document.getElementById('main').offsetTop+minorOffset);
  document.getElementById('main').style.height=sHGT+"px";
   }
window.onload=setHgt;
window.onresize=setHgt;
