To my knowledge, there’s no way to fix this problem with pure CSS (that works in all common browsers):
- Floats don’t work.
display: inline-block
doesn’t work.position: relative
withposition: absolute
requires manual pixel tuning. If you’re using a server-side language, and you’re working with images (or something with predictable height), you can handle the pixel tuning “automatically” with server-side code.
Instead, use jQuery Masonry.
