css
I don't know why css doesn't function height 100%, unless you put many contents inside of box and setting the box height 100% without using absolute, the chunky text content will push the height down to the bottom. But I still want to challenge css with this question.

... What?

100% height isn't "fill the rest of the container" height. 100% height makes a "box" (I'm interpreting this as you meaning a div) the full height of the parent container. So if you have a "box", fill it half way with text, then make another "box" inside of it at 100% height, the "inner box" will be the height of the "outer box", and extend past the bottom of the "outer box".

Why? I don't really know either. That's just how it is.

What kind of thread subject is "css". Please read "How to post a question!" (link in sig) before posting again. Take a little time to make decent, descriptive thread subjects please.
