Css match height

I have an image slideshow with next/prev buttons. I'm trying to make the boxes behind the arrows' height match the main image. But right now they're stretching to the bottom of the thumbnails that are below. I tried both height: 100%, and position: absolute with top: 0 and bottom: 0, but neither of them are working. Display:flex and height: inherit didn't work either. Here's the codepen .

$(document).ready(function(){
    $('#imgDetail').animate({
    opacity: '1'
    },300);
});

$(document).ready(function(){
	// get all images loaded
  var images = $(".unidoor-class");
	// thumbnails containers
  var thumbnailContainer = $("#thumbnails");
    // generate thumbnail images
  generateThumbnails(images, thumbnailContainer);
  // listeners for controls arrows
	$(".prev-next-button").on("click touchstart", function() {
  	// get the images
    var currentImageIndex = $(".unidoor-class.active").index();
		var isPrevious = $(this).hasClass("previous");
    var nextIndex;
    if (isPrevious) {
    	if (currentImageIndex === 0) {
      	nextIndex = images.length - 1;
      }
      
      if (currentImageIndex > 0) {
      	nextIndex = currentImageIndex - 1;
      }
    } else {
    	if (currentImageIndex === images.length - 1) {
      	nextIndex = 0;
      }
      
      if (currentImageIndex < images.length - 1) {
      	nextIndex = currentImageIndex + 1;
      }
    }
		
    // remove any active class from images
		images.removeClass("active");
    // get the next active image and add active class to that next current image
    $(images[nextIndex]).addClass("active");
  });
  
  $(".thumb").on("click touchstart", function(event){
	  event.preventDefault();
    var indexSelected = $(this).data("img-index");
    var currentShown = $(".unidoor-class.active").index();
    if (currentShown === indexSelected) return false;
    images.removeClass("active");
    $(images[indexSelected]).addClass('active');
  });
  
  function generateThumbnails(images, container) {
  	var ul = $("<ul>");
  	images.each(function(index, element){
    	var currentThumb = $("<img>");
      var li = $("<li>");
      var src = $(this).attr("src");
      currentThumb.attr("src", src);
      currentThumb.attr("class", "thumb");

Solution

  • What I did is that I remove the #thumbnails inside the container of .imgDetail so that the next and prev button will follow the height of the .imgDetail.

    To be able to center the next and prev button i use display:flex,

    #imgDetail a {
  text-decoration: none;
  display: flex;
  padding: 8px 16px;
  justify-content: center;
  align-items: center;
}

    and then enclose the text of the next and prev <p></p> tag

    <a href="#" id="prev" class="prev-next-button previous">
  <p>&#8249;</p>
</a>
<a href="#" id="next" class="prev-next-button next">
  <p>&#8250;</p>
</a>

    var currentImageIndex = $(".unidoor-class.active").index();
		var isPrevious = $(this).hasClass("previous");
    var nextIndex;
    if (isPrevious) {
    	if (currentImageIndex === 0) {
      	nextIndex = images.length - 1;

      if (currentImageIndex > 0) {
