panel

Hi everyone,

I have an asp.net panel that contains a checkboxlist. I'd like to resize it so that its width fits the list's contents snugly.

Right now I'm handling the panel's pre rendering event, setting its width to match that of the checkboxlist. However it appears the checkboxlist's width property reads zero (at least in this pre render method) so the panel's width is set identically, which leads to inconsistent renderings in Firefox vs IE. Does anyone have a better approach to doing what I'm attempting here? Many thanks.
