Thanks Syed, I’m sure with all the new jQuery stuff things are much easier than they were few years ago (when I wrote this, lol )

i found this jquery solution of 100% height which calculates the document height and makes the div height accordingly at http://www.irtaza.com/scripting/div-100-height-scroll-issue-on-ie-fixed-with-jquery/

Hi,

The CSS height:100% code didn’t worked if you are adding controls (Div) dynamically inside any other div.
So to achieve this, you have to give 100% height to all the containers of respective div i.e.
if your structure is like this body->div1->div2->div3 and you want to make div3 as 100% height then you need to make div2,div1 and body also to height 100%…

This is a pain in some cases.
