I wonder could someone explain to me why the "min-height=100%" in the #main div doesn't work on this page - www.brainplay.ie/h?

If I change the value to pixels, e.g. 700px, it works fine?

It takes a bit more than just setting 100% height, take a look at the spec for min-height, 100% min-height is for expanding elements to the full height of their container, if that container is auto, then the height will be auto.

Thanks for this.... i've actually tried this and a few other solutions already but I can't get them to work? I know this works as I've made a basic html and css using the code and it works fine.

My question - where do I put the 'push' div..... currently I'm put it in manually on the page.tpl?

Thanks for all your help in advance.

I have this same problem, i have a site with two columns (regions subcontent1, and subcontent2) they are siblings inside of a containing div (div#subcontent_wrapper). They are roughly halfway down my page layout in the main content area, and I want the shorter of the two (it varies, I don't control content) to expand it's height to line up with the one that is taller, because they both have a border, and when the boxes don't line-up, it gets ugly, I'd rather have the extra white-space INSIDE the box than outside. Thanks in advance.
