CSS - can't get min-height working
I'm trying to make a really simple webpage. It should be a 1000px wide green, centered rectangle stretching all the way from the top to the bottom of the webpage on a red background, no matter how much content there is.
I can't get this working though. If I use min-height
(like below), the green area doesn't stretch all the way to the bottom of the page if there's not enough content. If I replace it by height
, the content overflows the green area if there's much content.
Here's my HT开发者_如何学GoML:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="stylesheet.css" />
</head>
<body>
<div id="container">
content here.
</div>
</body>
</html>
Here's the CSS:
html {
height: 100%;
}
body {
background-color: #F00;
margin: 0;
min-height: 100%;
}
#container {
background-color: #0F0;
width: 1000px;
margin: 0 auto;
height: 100%;
}
I know this is feasible with more div
s, but it really should work without changing the HTML. How can I solve this?
By the way, I'm on Safari. I don't care about compatibility with browsers not respecting standards.
Here is a working sample:
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Container sample</title>
<style>
html, body
{
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
height: 100%;
background: red;
}
#container
{
background: green;
width: 1000px;
min-height: 100%;
margin: 0 auto 0 auto;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="container">
Container sample
</div>
</body>
</html>
For more information take a look at my answer to a similar question.
you can use property position absolute
for your requirement. It may help you
#container {
background-color: #0F0;
width: 1000px;
margin: 0 auto;
position:absolute;
top:0;
bottom:0;
left:50%;
margin-left:-500px;
}
Give your #container
a position:absolute;
with top
and bottom
set to 0
.
#container {
background-color: #0F0;
width: 1000px;
margin: 0 auto;
position:absolute;
top:0;
bottom:0;
}
