how to make <dis>'s behave like <td>'s?

this will be hard to explain.
picture a <table> with 3 columns. if you type text into the center column
and hit enter a bunch of times, all 3 columns expand vertically to fit the
content you put in the middle column.

I want to duplicate this with <div> tags.

if I have 3 <div>'s floating next to each other so that they line up, and I
type and hit enter in the middle div, it grows vertically while the other 2
stay put. is there any way to make it so that they all "grow" together?
(without a bunch of messy javascript)

I haven't tried this but see if div.someclass {display: table-cell;} works.
