+## Make width of bars dynamic
+
+Currently, our bars have a fixed width.  No matter how many elements we have, they have 15px width.  If we had more data elements, the bars could overlap.  Let's change this.  Since each `rect` will be the same width, no matter what the data is, we can just assign `width` a computed value:
+
+```javascript
+d3.selectAll('rect')
+    .attr('width', WIDTH/data.length);
+```
+
+Now let's adjust our `rect` css so our bars are more visible:
+
+```css
+rect {
+    /*  remove the width rule that was here */
+    stroke:white;
+    stroke-width:1px;
+}
+```
