I have this example http://jsfiddle.net/HnfCU/
I use jQuery to show and hide the .child div. The .child is positioned absolute to .parent The problem I try to solve is the height of the .child.

I want .child‘s background to cover it’s whole area. Now, using height:100% it covers it partially. I can’t use fixed height because the content will be dynamic.

Any method, css or javascript[jQuery], is acceptable, or any change on the structure.

    If I understand you correctly, removing bottom: 5px and height: 100% will get you what you want: http://jsfiddle.net/blineberry/HnfCU/1/

    This allows .child to get its height from its contents.
