I've done a lot of poking around the web and this newsgroup and have
seen a number of answers to this question. But, I wanted to appeal to
the experts here one last time before I decide to let the issue go and
move on.
Here's the deal: I have a DIV that I want to stretch to 100% of the
height the page. Not just the viewport, but the page. When there is
content that extends past the viewport, I have to remove all the
height: 100% attributes from my html, body and div CSS definitions, and
it works fine. This is shown here:

However, if I have a page with not enough content to extend to the
bottom of the page, then, of course, this doesn't work. Like here:
http://www.singley.org/pilcrows/test_bg2.html
To fix this second example, I'd need to add the height attributes back.
So, the question: am I stuck adding height attributes to individual
pages that don't have enough content to extend the DIV to the bottom of
the page? I can live with that, I just want to know for sure if that's
my only solution.
Thanks!
