help with javascript - offsetheight different in i.e. and FF

[ArchAnGeL]

I am using the code below to set Div's to equal height

<script type="text/javascript">
var DivHeight = document.getElementById("content1").offsetHeight;
document.write(DivHeight)
document.getElementById("leftcol").style.height = DivHeight+"px";
</script>

My problem is ie is returning 649px which is correct yet FF ony 120?

The leftcol Div starts life as 1200px as declared in the css file

Thanks for any help

I'm no expert at javascript, but would this work

<script type="text/javascript">
document.getElementById("leftcol").style.height = document.getElementById("content1").offsetHeight."px";
</script>

or maybe this

<script type="text/javascript">
document.getElementById("leftcol").style.height = document.getElementById("content1").style.height;
</script>
