100% page height

I am trying to design this website:

http://www.fuzzee.info/V2/

and I am having trouble getting it 100% high. Here's an example:

http://www.fuzzee.info/V2/image1.jpg

so far, it is all HTML and CSS, so the browser source code is good enough as reference.

I bet there's someone out there who can tell me how to do this!

Re: 100% page height

Check out the sticky footer by Ryan Fait. Works great.

As for the left and right border going all the way down, you might want to have a look at Faux Columns method.

Re: 100% page height

I tried to build the "CSS Sicky footer" into the site, but it only works in IE!!!

Mozilla ignores the height comand: maybe because my content is a "display:inline-block;" div??

Re: 100% page height

The sticky footer works in all browsers. I've used it and have had no problem with it.

Re: 100% page height

somehow Firefox is ignoring any height value I give it...

Can anyone see the problem there?

Re: 100% page height

Ok. I got it all figured out, by redesigning the site around the sticky footer theme. Thanks for the help.

Re: 100% page height

Thanks for giving my code a go It's refreshing to hear someone mention that they took the time to solve a problem based around a foreign snippet of CSS.

I've been spending my spare time (not there's much of it) working on more complex layouts for the 100%-height-with-a-sticky-footer style sheet. My inbox is filled with beginners asking about getting two and three column layouts that render properly x-browser.

If anyone knows how to stop time in a more tasteful fashion than the Napoleon Dynamite method, let me know and I'll give it a go
