Hello,
Yes, I've spent hours reading through all the old postings and
searched
the net - but couldnt find a solution to the 100% height problem with
nested divs.
Basically I want the first box to be 250px high, and the one below it
to take up the rest of the browser window. I have a big div around the
lot (set to 100% height), and thought that the bottom div would fill
it up without stretching it - yet it stretches.
My code (For IE) is as follows:
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
div.whole {
width:100%;
height: 100%;
border:3px solid green;
}
div.topbar {
height:250px;
width:100%;}
div.lower {
border:5px solid red;
height: 100%;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="whole">
<div class="topbar"> Top bar for logo</div>
<div class="lower">M ain</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Thanks loads, Josh 1  4334 
Fixed it myself, here's the code for anyone else with the same
problem:
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
html body {
margin:250px 0 0 0;
padding: 0;
overflow:hidden ;
}
html #top {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
width:100%;
height: 250px;
border: 5px solid red;
}
html .content {
top:180px;
border: 5px solid green;
overflow:auto;
height:100%;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="top">Header </div>
<div class="content" >Main content</div>
</body>
</html>

couldn't find an answer to my problem in the ciwas archives. So, at the
risk of asking something trivial, here goes:
I want to have a page that looks as follows: at the left, a blue column
with a navigation menu. The rest of the page, with a white background, is
for the content. The blue fades smoothly into the white.

Hello
Well I'm a newbie to CSS and I have an issue with using 100% height when viewed in Firefox. If I use a pixel measurement, everything works well. I uploaded it to my site: http://www.realbabyguide.co.uk/test.html
I'm trying to make an always centered DIV which I've called container. The website fits into this DIV. The yellow blocks are floated left.
Any ideas? I'm tearing my hair out (what's left of it!). Maybe I should...

Can anyone help me get I.E 6 to show an absolute positioned div with
height as 100% to actually be 100% height of its containing div (which
also has height set to 100%)?
I.E 7 and Firefox both render the page as intended but I.E.6 causes
issues.
Is this a common problem ?

Hello,
I have built a site that uses two divs, one verticle, and one horizontal as graphic style for the ite. The problem I am having is that if the browser is resized very small the divs are then smaller than the website is wide. I have tried fixed positioning but then i get the dreaded overlap when the browser is smaller than the website. Absolute positioning gets rid of the overlap but then brings on the width issue. Is there a way to...

Since I began doing CSS layouts instead of tables last year, it seems like every single site I do I run into the same problem -- getting a div to stretch to 100% height.

It's very frustrating how such a simple concept can be so hard to do...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
