Dumb question with a simple answer, I think.

I am building a site that has a completely different layout on one page from the rest. On one page, the design requires a liquid vertical layout, so I need the following code: *{height:100%;}On the other pages I just want the default height.

I tried to add a class to the html tag, which works in the html, but not in the CSS file. I tried:

*.myClass

and 

html.myClass

but it doesn’t seem to work.

I can’t seem to find any info on this online. Is it even possible to add classes to the html tag?

I am using wordpress, so I can easily check to see which page I’m on and add myClass.

I guess I could also use @import to get a different style sheet based on the page I’m on, but that seems like a longwinded way of doing things.

How can I specify height:100% as a value of the html tag on specific pages only?

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,

J

    Perhaps .myClass, .myClass body {height: 100%}?

    It is indeed possible to add a class to the <html> tag.
