100% height of a div inside a TD

08-28-2005

I've got the problem described in the table above.

I've put a div red with some text inside a TD, but its height is less than 100% of TD height as you can see.

I've defined the following styles:

div.test { background-color:red; height:100%; width: 100%; }
table.test { border: 1px solid #CCCCCC; background-color:yellow; }
td.test { border: 1px solid #CCCCCC; }

does anyone know a solution ?

Please help me.

Change
<TD class=test><DIV class=test>1</DIV></TD>
to
<TD class=test><DIV class=test>1<br> </DIV></TD>

I can't use your solution, because the table is compiled runtime and so I can't know before the maximum lenght of 1 td for setting the correct width style.

I would start by fixing your validation problems, especially the improper
nesting ones:

line 8 column 24 - Warning: missing </font> before <div>
line 8 column 7 - Warning: missing </font> before <div>
line 10 column 1 - Warning: inserting implicit <font>
line 10 column 1 - Warning: inserting implicit <font>
line 10 column 1 - Warning: missing </font> before <style>
line 10 column 1 - Warning: <style> isn't allowed in <font> elements
line 40 column 1 - Warning: <style> isn't allowed in <div> elements
line 40 column 1 - Warning: <style> isn't allowed in <div> elements
line 94 column 53 - Warning: discarding unexpected </font>
line 94 column 60 - Warning: discarding unexpected </font>
line 3 column 7 - Warning: inserting missing 'title' element
line 6 column 1 - Warning: <style> inserting "type" attribute
line 10 column 1 - Warning: <style> inserting "type" attribute
line 41 column 1 - Warning: <style> inserting "type" attribute
line 62 column 1 - Warning: <style> inserting "type" attribute
line 6 column 1 - Warning: trimming empty <style>
line 8 column 24 - Warning: trimming empty <font>
line 8 column 7 - Warning: trimming empty <font>

Then get all of the garbage out. You don't need three instances of the same
style rules. When all is said and done, there is a simple solution. Here is
a complete document that does what you want (and validates):

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<style type="text/css">
table {
width: 300px;
border-collapse: collapse;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
background-color: #ff0;
}
td {
border: 1px solid #ccc;
height: 100%;
}
td div {
background-color: #f00;
height: 100%;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<table>
<tr><td>2<br>2b</td>
<td><div>1</div></td></tr>
<tr><td>4</td>
<td>5</td></tr>
<tr><td>7</td>
<td>8</td></tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
