another CSS height 100% problem
UPDATE: I think there was too many information. Here's my question: how to make the height of #middle 100% of the remaining space in the following exampl:
<body>
<div id="big">
开发者_高级运维 <div id="header"></div>
<div id="middle"></div>
<div id="btm"></div>
</div>
</body>
height of #big, body, html is all 100%.
Height of header and bottom are 120px;Update: Changed my example to match your updated question
Here's a working example of your layout. Tested in IE8, IE7, Firefox, and Chrome.
The key here is NOT to set this height of middle
to 100%. Instead, you position it absolutely, with top
and bottom
equal to the height of your header
and btm
elements (in your case, 120px).
If you set the height of the middle
element to 100%, it will be the same height as the big
element, which is 100% of the body tag, and hence your middle
element will be too large, causing horizontal scroll bars.
