Twitter Bootstrap 3 - Panels of Equal Height in a Fluid Row

Question

I am new to Bootstrap 3 and I would like to have 3 panels on my landing page of equal height, even though the middle panel has less content. When resized they become the sam

Answer 1

this function finds the largest .panel-body height, then makes that the height of all my .panel-body elements.

function evenpanels() {
    var heights = [];                           // make an array
    $(".panel-body").each(function(){           // copy the height of each
        heights.push($(this).height());         //   element to the array
    });
    heights.sort(function(a, b){return b - a}); // sort the array high to low
    var minh = heights[0];                      // take the highest number    
    $(".panel-body").height(minh);              // and apply that to each element
}

Now that all the panel-bodys are the same, the heights need to be cleared when the window resizes before running the "evenpanels" function again.

$(window).resize(function () { 
        $(".panel-body").each(function(){
            $(this).css('height',"");           // clear height values
        });                                     
        evenpanels();
});
