CSS - Main Div Needs To Be 100% Height
I am using this:
http://bonrouge.com/3c-hf-fluid.php At that code stands the #main div starts off at minimum height and expands with content. The #clearfooter div stops it covering the footer when it expands. However. I need the #main div to start off filling the gap between the header and footer rather than it being an expanding element. The reason is that I need a background to cover the area between #header and #footer. I have run out of ideas on how to accomplish this. The CSS I have created so far is: PHP Code: html { height: 100%; } body { margin: 0; padding: 0; height: 100%; background-image: url(../images/2500px_height_bg.gif); font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Times New Roman', Serif; text-align: center; } #wrap { min-height: 100%; } * html #wrap { height:100%; } #contain_header { height: 20px; text-align: center; padding: 0; } #header { margin:0 auto; width: 760px; height: 20px; background-image: url(../images/header_bg.gif); line-height: 20px; vertical-align: center; } #clearfooter { clear: both; height: 21px; overflow: hidden; background-color: red; } #contain_footer { height: 21px; background-image: url(../images/contain_footer_bg.gif); background-repeat: repeat-x; margin-top: -21px; text-align: center; padding: 0; } #footer { margin:0 auto; width: 760px; height: 21px; background-image: url(../images/footer_bg.gif); line-height: 21px; vertical-align: center; z-index: 1000; } #wrap_content { position: absolute; width: 100%; min-height: 100%; margin-top: -21px; padding-bottom: 31px; padding-top: 20px; background-color: transparent; } * html #wrap_content { height: 100%; } #main { position: relative; top: 0px; left: 0px; height: 100%; background-color: white; } * html #main { height: 1px; } Any suggestions welcome Similar TutorialsThis is my first completely css site and I am having troubles with my main content areas and some other small minor things. My design requires that the sidebar be the same height as my content area. What do I need to do to get them the same heights. The main content area changes on each page so my sidebar needs to do the same. Here is the website. I guess I cannot post url's so I hope I made sense. Also an example of what the site is going to look is here. Once again cannot post urls. Also, I need help with lists. In the example image I have the lists side-by-side. Normally I would use a table for this. Is there a way to do this with css? Any help would greatly be appreciated. Thanks, Shaun Hi, I have a site with a left navigation bar (which is fixed width, and has a background colour that must stretch full screen from top to bottom of the page). The site is: http://67.18.220.222/~duoboots/2005/z.html Stylesheet: http://67.18.220.222/~duoboots/2005...s/style2005.css As you can see, the left navigation menu stops once the content within the div is displayed. It does not stretch to the bottom of the screen. (say if you're on 1024 x 768 resolution) Note: this varies according to the main (right) content. If the main content was shorter than the menu bar - it would work fine. The menu bar has a min-height of 100% which means the background applies to the size of your screen. However, if the main content height is greater than that of the menu bar - then the menu bar will not adapt, but the background simply stops. Is there a workaround for this? With tables, this could easily be achieved because the background colour of one cell is stretch until the end of the table, and not the content within the cell. However, I'd like to do this with CSS. Here's some CSS: Code:
body, p {
color:#666666 ;
font-family: Verdana, Arial ;
font-size:7.5pt ;
font-weight:normal;
}
body {
height:100%;
margin: 0px;
background-color: #2F201E;
}
#container {
width: 968px;
height:100%;
}
#nav {
width: 201px;
border-right: 3px solid #FFFFFF;
background: #8D603B;
float: left;
min-height:100%;
}
I've tried switching "min-height" and "height" but they don't seem to do what I want.... if anyone could help me out it would be MUCH appreciated! Thanks a lot! In my css I have the following to set up the height and width of the page to 100%: Code:
html, body {
font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif;
color: #000000;
background-color: #E1E1E1;
margin: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
For my website I have the following layout: Code:
<body>
<div id="container">
<div id="header"></div>
<div id="menu"></div>
<div id="main"></div>
<div id="footer"></div>
</div>
</body>
How do I get the <div id="main"></div> to fill in the remainder of the window height, without setting its height to 100% and them causing scroll bars and throwing the footer off the page. Hi all, I am trying to automate everything on my test website and I have one more angle to cover. In effect, I want to adjust the line-height property (which I can do) based on the number of files within a specific folder (PHP and already done). The more files in the folder, the lower the line-height value must be. This is to ensure if I copy additional files into the folder, then the navigation menu (which is PHP reading files in this particular folder) will alter the CSS line-height property accordingly to ensure it can never exceed a certain height. Sounds wierd? go to www.re3.org.uk (next to the RE3 image, I have a list of hyperlinks which are obtained from files within the folder) My problem, when adjusting the CSS property (which is set as cm in *.css file) in javascript, it doesn't correspond correctly, the line-height property in javascript doesn't appear to be work in cm but some other measurement. Does anyone know how to change what unit of measurement Javascript works in? Or does anyone know what unit of measurement javascript uses when adjusting line-height / line-width values? I want to create a mini-algorithm that works out the appropriate line-height based on the image height (got that already) and the number of files in the folder (got that too) so the menu automatically adjusts to fit. Whew! I've never done much CSS work, but I know this has to be an easy fix. Each DIV appears to be 10px higher when viewed in IE. I want them to be 8px high and they end up being 18px high. In Firefox, Netscape, and Opera it works fine. Anyone mind correcting this imbarrassing little problem?

It seem that everytime I added the image tag, the div'x area get bigger in IE but not in Mozilla/Firefox browser. So, I thought by added the "margin-bottom:-360px;" to the div would fix it but it had an opposite effect. Meaning it worked in IE but Mozilla show a vertical scrollbar. So, does anyone know how can I make the <img> overlap one another without being stacked on one after another in height for IE if I take out the "margin-bottom: -360px;"? Thanks... Code:
div.divBox1
{
width: 286px;
height: 359px;
float: left;
}
div.divClearFloat
{
clear: both;
height: 0px; /* For IE Stupidity (it added some spaces after clearing the float) */
font-size: 1pt; /* For IE Stupidity (minimum height only work with current font-size somewhere) */
}

If the content is short all columns should extend to the height of the page window, but if the content in any of the columns is longer than the window height they should all extend to reach the bottom of the page and accommodate the content length In my first attempt things didn't go so well, results varied wildly across browsers so I decided to start from scratch bit by bit Bellow is the point at which I reach consistent but undesired behaviour, I have validated and tested the code in Firefox 3/Pale Moon, Internet Explorer 8, Chromium 9, and Opera 11 I would like the end result to work in the above browsers as well as IE7 if possible I should point out now that im not interested in using faux-columns, the layout should not require images, I also wish to have absolute-positioned elements in the columns some time later Code:

In the above example it works as long as the content within the columns is shorter than the window height, but if you re-size the window so that the text in the right or left column goes beyond the page, and then scroll to the bottom, the columns do not extend to the bottom of the page so there is a large gap where the content overflows beyond the column What I would like to do from this point is make the columns extend to the bottom of the page when this happens, but I'm not sure how best to proceed I also have a version of the above code which uses floated left and right columns instead of absolute positioned ones, would it be better to work from that? or does it not really matter Thanks in advance Hello everybody! I have been having a big problem with my webpage for a long time now and hope I can find an answer to my problem with your help. I want a div that contains the content of my pages (which varies in length depending on the individual page) to stretch the length of my page, but it only stretches the length of the window. Here's the HTML and CSS: HTML (I only included the very basic structure): <html> <body> <div class="container"> <div id="content"> <div id="..."></div> <div id="..."></div> <div id="..."></div> <div id="..."></div> </div> </div> </body> </html>` CSS: html, body { height: 100%; font-family: Arial; font-size: 10px; color: #000000; background: #FFF url(../../images/body.png) no-repeat center 40px; margin: 0; position: relative;} .container { height: 100%; width: 960px; margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; position: relative;} #content { width: 939px; min-height: 100%; position: relative; top: 210px; left: 6px; box-shadow: 0px 0px 8px #666; -moz-box-shadow: 0px 0px 8px #666; -webkit-box-shadow: 0px 0px 8px #666; background-color: #FFF;} I tried to set the content div to overflow: auto, but that includes a scroll bar for the content div that I do not want. It does, however, create the desired effect of the shadow and background of the #content div all the way to the end of the page. Am I missing anything? I thought min-height would work, but it doesn't! It only stretches the content div to page height and everything else is overflow, but without the content div's background color and shadow. Does anybody maybe see where the problem lies? Thank you so much in advance for your help. If you look at the bottom of the page at www.res-technologies_DOT_com/index.php?jos_change_template=restech2 in both IE and FF, you will see that it looks fine in IE, but in FF the page length is extended by exactly the height of the header image at the top of the page. Trying to figure out what's causing this is driving me nuts! Can anyone help? thx dh Hello, My site contains a basic slideshow that is encapsulated in a "main" div tag. For some reason I cannot center it on the page! I can move it back and fourth but I cannot center it. Can someone please help. www(dot)katieandconrad(dot)com Regards, CB I am trying to add a border to my pictures. I read a tutorial about it but however in firefox it escapes from the box. In IE it looks fine. Has anyone had this problem before? Any tips on fixing it? Thank you here is the link http://www.conceptofgravity.com/test/pictures_test.html Hi, I guess I can't post the URL of my test page with the problem which would make it a lot easier to explain. I don't quite see why anyone would want to re-create the page from pasted code when they could just look at the actual page but oh well. Anyway, I'm working on a website that is supposed to look like a folder -- it is composed of a top graphic, content area, bottom graphic, all wrapped in an outer div. It looks like it ought to in Firefox. In IE there is a gap between the top graphic and the main content div. I've tried making sure all relevant margins, padding etc are set to 0. I can't put the top graphic inside the content div (fixed a similar problem this way on another project) as it is wider!

I'm fairly new to CSS, but am trying to leave tables behind as much as possible. Can anybody please tell me how to fix this? Regards, Elisabeth Thanks for taking the time to read my question. I have a MainBox that I have all my page in. <div id="MainBox"></div> I had a height set and both IE and FF displayed ok, but if the content was higher than the box, FF expanded and IE didn't. So I took the height off and IE expaned and FF shrunk to nothing. What's up with that? I've attached the code and the one pic. What can I do to get them to display the same? right now all files go in the same folder. Thanks, Brad I have tried multiple times to have a kind of "content" div, where it resizes vertically to the amount of content in it, and stays the same width and is centered. How can I do this? I know min-height doesn't work in IE. Another problem I was having, certain pages would be off to the left when they should have been centered. Please help! Hi All, I think the following is a css problem that I have tried to solve but without success and cause a markup validation error that I can't get rid of. Here you can see the original problem simonedegan.net/index_III.html which I tried to correct (see he simonedegan.net) but when I go to validate the code I have the following errors: Line 92, Column 24: ID "flashcontent" already defined. <div class="style4" id="flashcontent">This SlideShowPro photo gallery requires t Line 88, Column 24: ID "flashcontent" first defined here. <div class="style3" id="flashcontent"> Originally I changed the padding from 15px to 200px to allow a proper alignment of the words in the parent pages (e.g. simonedegan.net/news.html). If it is the case how can I create a 'rule' with the padding of 15px on the left only for the main page where the flash instance is (i.e. simonedegan.net) without affecting the parent pages? Many thanks for helping P.S.: my apologies to the moderator for the links. I did not know how to post the questions without URLs so I removed the initial http://. Again my apologies. I am having a problem trying to get one column match the height of another. Within a large DIV box, I created two columns separated by about 20 px. I floated one to the left, then pushed one over to the right. Both boxes will expand depending on the amount of content, but I would like them to match the same height. The boxes will be used throughout the entire website, so it would not make sense to create a background image to try and trick it into being the same height.. or actually specifying the height. Is there any way to tell the left box to be the same height as the right box?? I tried to link to my site but it won't let a new member link to a website. My web page has a display bug in IE 5+ on Windows. Specifically, I have a DIV within which I wish to place two images. The two images are the same height and width, and I want to layer them (the top one is a PNG with transparency, but I have already solved that problem, this is a positioning problem) exactly on top of each other. I have done this by positioning them relatively within the DIV. The first image is top:0;left:0 and the second is top:-150;left:0 (the images are 150 px tall). They layer fine, but the DIV is twice the height (as if the second image were still following the first, making he DIV 300 px tall). I have tried many things and am stumped. Here is the site: URL Here is the relevant CSS: Code: #bannerPhoto {
border-bottom-width: 1px;
border-bottom-style: solid;
border-bottom-color: #000000;
height: 150px;
width: 750px;
}
#bannerPic {
position: relative;
z-index: 1;
left: 0px;
top: 0px;
}
#bannerText {
position: relative;
z-index: 2;
left: 0px;
top: -150px;
}
And the HTML: Code: <div id="bannerPhoto"> <div id="bannerPic"><img src="../images/bannerPhotos/image.jpg" height="150" width="750" /></div> <div id="bannerText"><img src="../images/text-cover.png" height="150" width="750" /></div> </div> Anyone? Thanks, Denver. OK not only am I having problems giving a background image to individual cells. I have a problem where I cannot give the whole document the same background. I mean the background appears but one table (tab2) and one cell (td1) do not show the image that should span their areas too. Ive included the css, I think I may be some suspisious code. If you could please have a look for me. Thanks (see attached) Hello I'm sure this should be easy can has been done but I can't find an example that doesn't break in some way. I want to position and extra column outside and to the right of the main centered content div. The purpose of this is to place extra less important information which can / will be hidden for 1024 resolutions. The problem I have is that either of my methods break. One option was to position the item 100% from the left and then give it a negative left margin. But this pushes the box into the main content when the resolution comes down to 1024. The other was to put it inside the main content, float it right and give it a negative right margin to "drag" it out of the main div. The problem with this one is that I get a horizontal scroll bar when reducing to 1024. I want the column to be hidden if the res is 1024 or less. Here is the CSS: Code: <style>
* {
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}
#Wrapper {
width: 1000px;
min-height: 500px;
margin: 0 auto 0 auto;
background-color: #C0C0C0;
}
#RightColumn {
width: 150px;
min-height: 400px;
margin-right: -150px;
float: right;
background-color: #000000;
}
</style>
And here is the HTML: Code: <body> <div id="Wrapper"> <div id="RightColumn"></div> </div> </body> It's the basic stuff but I want to get it right before I add anything else. Thanks for an help or suggestions Doc Hi All.. I am working on my first real website for a friend and I am having trouble getting the top image where I want it. I will post a link in a sec. What I am trying to do is set a top, middle and bottom image in the Main Content part of the site. It looks like a picture frame but can expand without breaking when I add new content. I had no problem putting the middle image in and I finally got the bottom image set, though I had to do some strange things to get it to work. Now I am stuck on the top image. I can not get it set where I want it. I am still learning CSS/HTML and am trying to do this on my own and with Google . but this has me stumped. Could someone tell me what I should do.
