Why can't you give a real URL to click on. URL's don't need to be munged
on newsgroups, just email addresses you know :-)

Please provide a real, complete url, e.g.,
http://www.example.com

Now, what do you mean its height is 100%. 100% of what? In Firefox, your
home page is more than one screenful.
how do i do that?
I'm not sure what you want to do.
#content { width: 579px; }
It's a very bad idea to set width of content containers in px, for
reasons that have been discussed repeatedly in ciwa*. Please read the
group archives before asking why, so as to avoid wasting your time.

While you're at it, please read about microfonts, and why the correct
font size is 100% for your content, menus, etc. This can also be found
in the archives, discussed over and over again in these groups.

In your dreams perhaps.

Fix the height of what? The viewport? What if the content doesn't fit?

I cannot imagine why that's a problem.

You need to explain what you want to happen, what does happen, and
provide a url -- *after* validating your html, and checking that your
css contains no errors.

Well, no, I can't, because you didn't give us one. Is this message a
reply to a previous one? You must include a short extract of the message
you're replying to if you want meaningful answers to your questions.
