I have a DIV in a table. This code is generated by GWT, so I don’t have a lot of control over the elements that are used (which is to say that I know tables are usually not the best element for layout, but this is not something that I have direct control over).

In Firefox, a DIV with 100% height spills out below the table, while in Chrome the DIV are sized as I would expect. What is going on?

    So this one had my pulling out my hair for a while, but it turns out that the DIVs in Firefox were defaulting to box-sizing: content-box setting, while in Chrome they were defaulting to the box-sizing: border-box setting. Because I was using padding in the DIV, this was causing Firefox to display the DIV with a height of 100% plus the padding.

    The solution was to just specify -moz-box-sizing: border-box in the CSS for the div.
