I am in the process of designing a unique clip showcase on my website. The concept involves creating a table-like structure with a thumbnail image on the left and various information on the right, including a title, publication source, date, and description. While I have no trouble implementing this using HTML's <table>
element, I am striving to enhance my skills in CSS.
After extensively exploring this informative platform, I have made significant progress. However, I am encountering difficulties when it comes to specifying the height dynamically. Instead of setting a fixed height, I aim for the row to adjust based on the content's size, such as an image or text block, ensuring consistent heights across both columns.
The current setup is as follows:
HTML:
<p class="imageclass">thumbnail</p>
<p class="textclass">text content separated by line breaks</p>
CSS:
.container {
width:620px;
}
.imageclass {
float:left;
width:120px;
}
.textclass {
float:left;
width:500px;
}
