i have used this but its taking space (Hight) even their is 1 or 2 items in list.. div style="overflow-y :auto; height :100px "


Solution

  • Instead of fixing the height with a static value, you can set the max-height of the container div. In this case it will use auto height as long as it's less than the height you specified :)

    P.S. To make the max-height cross-browser compatible, you have to set it as follows in your css:

    .checkBoxList {
      max-height:100px;
      height:auto !important;
      height:100px;
    }
