I have the following HTML:
<html>
<body>
开发者_开发问答<h2>Title</h2>
<div id='large_div'>
blah.. blah.. blah..
</div>
</body>
</html>
How can I make the large_div
take up the rest of the page height?
Here is the CSS for the page:
html { height: 100%; }
body { height: 100%; }
#large_div {
/* ??? */
}
You could try setting a negative margin on the #large_div that was equal to the height of the h2. Unfortunately this will not very solid code since that h2 height will change depending on text length and browser:
#large_div {
height: 100%;
margin-top: -1em; /* adjust to height of h2 */
}
A bit of jQuery would sort you out though:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#large_div').css({height: $(window).height() - $('h2').height()});
});
So, you basically want a table layout? This is one of the nastiest things in CSS. You might consider to fall back to old fashioned HTML tables, but if you don't care about IE6/7 support, then you can also play around using display
attributes of table
, table-row
and eventually table-cell
.
Here's an SSCCE, copy'n'paste'n'run it.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>SO question 3323454</title>
<style>
html {
height: 100%;
}
body {
display: table;
margin: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
#large_div {
display: table-row;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background: pink;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h2>Title</h2>
<div id="large_div">blah.. blah.. blah..</div>
</body>
</html>
Again, this works in decent CSS2-adhering browsers only.
If all you want to achieve is to give the div a nice background, then there are nicer solutions.
If you knew the height of the top div (or h2 in this case), you might be able to try something like the following:
#topdiv { height:100px; }
#bottomdiv { height:100%; margin-bottom:-100px; bottom:0; }
Unfortunately, I can't test this from where I am right now, so this could be way off... But I believe I've used something similar to this before and it had a similar effect.
You may be able to find your solution - or at least a "good enough" solution, by playing around with those css properties...
Good luck!
html,body {height:100%;border:0px;margin:0px;padding:0px;}
#large_div {height:100%;margin:0px;}
