Setting Equal Heights To Columns

I am using twitter-bootstrap framework to create an 'article' with two columns. text on one side, and a column with a background image on the right. HTML

Solution 1:

Chris Coyier has a good solution for this already. I recommend reviewing this: https://css-tricks.com/fluid-width-equal-height-columns/

Example from article:

HTML

<div id="css-table">
  <div class="col"><p>Pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames ac turpis egestas.</p></div>
  <div class="col"><p>Pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames ac turpis egestas. Vestibulum tortor quam, feugiat vitae, ultricies eget, tempor sit amet, ante. Donec eu libero sit amet quam egestas semper. Aenean ultricies mi vitae est. Mauris placerat eleifend leo.</p></div>
  <div class="col"><p>Pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames ac turpis egestas.</p></div>
  <div class="col"><p>Pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames ac turpis egestas. Vestibulum tortor quam, feugiat vitae, ultricies eget, tempor sit amet, ante. Donec eu libero sit amet quam egestas semper. Aenean ultricies mi vitae est. Mauris placerat eleifend leo.</p></div>
</div>

CSS

#css-table {
  display: table;
}
#css-table .col {
  display: table-cell;
  width: 25%;
  padding: 10px;
}
#css-table .col:nth-child(even) {
  background: #ccc;
}
#css-table .col:nth-child(odd) {
  background: #eee;
}
