Setting body height to 100%

Question

I need to have the body of all my webpages (except homepage) located on http://www.zorglegal.nl to the same height (100% browser height), so the brown bar on the right is stretched full screen from top to bottom. How can I best achieve this?

html{
    height: 100%;
}

body{
    min-height: 100%;
}

doesn't work. I also tried to set a class for the content element and tried to set it to 100% height but that doesn't work either. How can i do this?

The brown bar is a png image and is set as a background image for a fullwidth container. So if that container is 100% high, it should work. But how?

Answer 1

You can use viewport height.

height: 100vh

This means that the div or whatever is as high as the browser window.

Answer 2

html, body{
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;

    min-width: 100%;
    width: 100%;
    max-width: 100%;

    min-height: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    max-height: 100%;
}

This Css will help you to set height 100% for every page.

Answer 5

You can also use table property here, for cross-browser support.

    html {
    width:100%;
    height: 100%;
    display: table;
    }

    body {
        width:100%;
        display:table-cell;
    }

    html, body {
        margin: 0px;
        padding: 0px;
    }
