[Solved] limit number of posts based on size

[DeathStarDarth]

ok. my questions keep getting more and more out there but everyone has been so helpful, i figure i may as well ask.

here’s my situation. i’m displaying a second loop of posts at the bottom of my page. the posts are being displayed horizontally & the main category is tumblelog or cat=3. here’s the code i’m using to display the posts:

Code:

id=”post-“>

see how it is displaying 4 posts as a default? here’s the deal. i have 6 tumblelog categories. each has different css. what i mean is:
links width is 220px, quotes width is 340px, etc. all totaling up to 940px. i’m trying to figure out a way to limit the posts available in the loop by size – instead of just saying 4 posts. that way, i can, at least theoretically, keep it full – with no empty space. does that make sense? i can explain better, if not.

anyway, any help would be greatly appreciated.

nevermind :)

i’m going to make all the posts the same size and utilize this http://css-tricks.com/set-font-size-based-on-word-count/ to make up for the extra space. man, i love this site.

thanks all the same.

cheers,
