Thispage for example has a scroll bar but is still one page (not talking print pages).<br /> Different browsers have different margins, so really your saying 100% of 'up to infinity'</p> Tue, 15 Mar 2005 20:20:55 +0000 Busy comment 1167960 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/html-css-and-javascript/setting-elements-height-100#comment-1167939 <p>I'm pretty sure you can't do height to 100%. I don't know why, but I guess the powers that be decided that it shouldn't be possible. </p> <p>On a google I found a lot of work arounds though:</p> <p><a href="http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&amp;lr=&amp;q=CSS+height+100%25&amp;btnG=Search" class="bb-url">http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&amp;lr=&amp;q=CSS+height+100%25&amp;btnG=Search</a><br /> (reason why this won't work: on a web page, what is 100%? Is it the height of the window or the height of the page? What is the height of the page?)</p> Tue, 15 Mar 2005 14:31:06 +0000 Megan comment 1167939 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net
