Div with dynamic height and scrolling content

[hans.kindberg]

I have a page with a content-div that scrolls and has a dynamic height.
I do this with position absolute, top and bottom. I can do this if the
other parts (divs) in the page over the scrolling part has the same
height-unit. To get the top value I add all the other heights together.
E.g. 2em + 1em + 3em = 6em.

Is it possible to accomplish this with parts having different
height-units (one is in %, another is in px and so on)? I know I can
fix this with a table.

Can I use bottom and right on a position-relative element?

publicity banner on top)

How would you add px and em for instance, where px is absolute and em
depending on browser setting and/or text zoom level? Seems contradictory.

Why do you use/want/need absolute positioning?

I wouldn't know why not. You?

FWIW, I did not see a banner. Does this happen only occasionally? How
does that affect your pixel-perfect layouts?

Do you have an answer or not? Do you know if it's possible? If so -
how?
Why or why not I want to mix px, % or em is not inportant!
Or have you not understood my question?

Have a sample url. As I see it it doesn't work with position-relative.

If you didn't see it it's good!
