    It’s not so simple with 100% height.

    Why Percentage Height Fails

    Okay, to begin, maybe I should explain
    exactly why 100% height fails.
    Contrary to popular opinion, it is not
    because the browser ignores the
    invalid HEIGHT attribute. The real
    reason it fails is that the browser
    does not expand the HTML and/or BODY
    (depending on the browser) to fill the
    browser viewport. The browser is in
    almost all cases, in fact, rendering
    the table as 100% high. The problem is
    that it is 100% of the containing
    element (HTML and BODY), which may not
    be as high as the browser’s veiwport.
    The HTML and BODY tags represent block
    elements that automatically expand to
    fill the width of their container,
    which is the browser’s viewport. They
    do not expand vertically. That can be
    fixed.
