Highcharts – how to have a chart with dynamic height?

Just don’t set the height property in HighCharts and it will handle it dynamically for you so long as you set a height on the chart’s containing element. It can be a fixed number or a even a percent if position is absolute.

Highcharts docs:

By default the height is calculated from the offset height of the
containing element

Example: http://jsfiddle.net/wkkAd/149/

#container {
    height:100%;
    width:100%;
    position:absolute;
}
