Title: 100% div height
Post by: yanng1 on March 02, 2008, 01:56:59 AM

Hey guys and ladies.  Im learning CSS.  amazing language, simple powerful. So far I see it is a great way to ditch cumbersome tables.  But I need help. 

I have encountered a problem with expanding my div tags to 100% of the length of the page.  They simply won't seem to fit tight. 

I currently have them set to 200% so that they at least don't abruptly end, but they are stretching the length of the page beyond need on some monitors.

here is the page:

I have found ineffective cures for this issue on google.  Mostly the idea that you can code the <div> inside of a <body> having defined both styles to
height:100%... The idea seems to be that the containment hierarchy will do the rest.  This, I am sure does not work. after 45 minutes of efforts.

PLEASE HELP!

-thanks in advance : )
