Change height of screen based on contents.

Posted on by 72
Hi,
 
I have a system which records text data on students at our school. It consists of 4 multi line text boxes and up to 3 potentially large tables. I've come up with a page that displays the information but I'd like to set the height of the screen based on the content. There is 1 table for each term so at the start of the year there is only one then at the end there will be 3 shown. I'm struggling to get the height to work properly. Can anyone suggest how to achieve this?
 
What I'm doing at the moment:
 
I have 3 separate containers for the tables and one container for the text boxes. The data is in a gallery which pulls from a sharepoint list so I suspect the issue is that the screen appears before the gallery has had a chance to grab the data so it can't find the height but I don't know a way round.
 
Thanks in advance.
Richard

    Please share pictures.
     
    Asking us to mentally guess what it looks like is why no one is responding I bet.
     
    Share so we can see, also make a mockup of what you want it to be
