Question

I am using bootstrap\'s panel to display text and image, but as the text grows, the body of the panel also increases. I want to know how to create the body with fix

Answer 1

HTML :

<div class="span4">
  <div class="panel panel-primary">
    <div class="panel-heading">jhdsahfjhdfhs</div>
    <div class="panel-body panel-height">fdoinfds sdofjohisdfj</div>
  </div>
</div>

CSS :

.panel-height {
  height: 100px; / change according to your requirement/
}

Answer 2

You can use max-height in an inline style attribute, as below:

<div class="panel panel-primary">
  <div class="panel-heading">jhdsahfjhdfhs</div>
  <div class="panel-body" style="max-height: 10;">fdoinfds sdofjohisdfj</div>
</div>

To use scrolling with content that overflows a given max-height, you can alternatively try the following:

<div class="panel panel-primary">
  <div class="panel-heading">jhdsahfjhdfhs</div>
  <div class="panel-body" style="max-height: 10;overflow-y: scroll;">fdoinfds sdofjohisdfj</div>
</div>

To restrict the height to a fixed value you can use something like this.

<div class="panel panel-primary">
  <div class="panel-heading">jhdsahfjhdfhs</div>
  <div class="panel-body" style="min-height: 10; max-height: 10;">fdoinfds sdofjohisdfj</div>
</div>

Specify the same value for both max-height and min-height (either in pixels or in points – as long as it’s consistent).

You can also put the same styles in css class in a stylesheet (or a style tag as shown below) and then include the same in your tag. See below:

Style Code:

.fixed-panel {
  min-height: 10;
  max-height: 10;
  overflow-y: scroll;
}

Apply Style :

<div class="panel panel-primary">
  <div class="panel-heading">jhdsahfjhdfhs</div>
  <div class="panel-body fixed-panel">fdoinfds sdofjohisdfj</div>
</div>

Hope this helps with your need.
