// We aren't using this, but if we wanted to go with a mostly-CSS solution, we could apply a class to the ad that used this. It's just not as nice with the magic number in there instead of measuring.

JS

  var adHTML = "<div class='ad'>" + response.data + "</div>";

  // adZone.classList.add("loaded");
  // We're going to do this mostly in JS
  
  // We need to figure this out!
  var ajaxContentHeight = 0;
  
  // We need a dummy element
  var testerElement = document.createElement("div");
  // That is exactly as wide as were we're putting the ad
  testerElement.style.width = adZone.offsetWidth;
  // Position it off screen though, nobody needs to see it
  testerElement.classList.add("test-height-element");
  // Temporarily put the ad in there
  testerElement.innerHTML = adHTML;
  // Plop it on the page for a sec
  document.body.appendChild(testerElement);
  // If there are any images in it, we need to wait for them to
  // load, otherwise our measuremenets will be off
  imagesLoaded(testerElement, function() {
    // Now we can measure the height!
    ajaxContentHeight = testerElement.offsetHeight + "px";
    // Nuke the dummy element
    testerElement.remove();
    // Drop the ad in the real place
    // It's collapsed by default
    adZone.innerHTML = adHTML;
    // Now apply some styles to allow it to transition 
    adZone.style.transition = "1s";
