Why isn't the container div taking full height?












0















Here's my code. Can someone please help me understand why isn't my container div taking it's full height ?



I can only "fix" the problem by giving a fixed height, but I want it to take full height no matter how much content there is in it. It seems that something collapse, it won't expand and my footer keeps coming up.



Sorry if it is not clear and thank you for your answers.

I can only "fix" the problem by giving a fixed height, but I want it to take full height no matter how much content there is in it. It seems that something collapse, it won't expand and my footer keeps coming up.



Sorry if it is not clear and thank you for your answers.

  • In the example you've given the .container element does take up 100% of the viewport's height

could you try this? Adding display flex and making the padding to 0 normally helps me.



.container{
width: 80%;
margin: 0 auto;
position: relative;
padding: 0;
/*border: 1px solid black;*/
clear:both;
background-color: #FFF;
height: 100vh;
display:flex;
overflow:hidden;
}

I'm not quite sure what are you trying to achieve, but if you want your .container element to expand with its content, remove the positioning of the content. In your case, remove the position: relative; from .box1 and also remove height: 100vh; and min-height: 100vh; from .container so it can calculate its height itself.

  • I know it looks kind of messy and there's probably a lot of useless code. I'm just beginning to learn and I don't get all the notions yet. Thanks for helping ! In fact I'd just like my container div to take all it's height to the footer, no matter how muck content there's in it. I tried what you said, but unfortunately I didn't fix the problem. If I put too many elements in the box, it goes off everything. Plus theres a space between the container and the footer that I can't get rid off

  • Well, the space between the container and the footer is defined by <br><br><br><br><br><br><br> in your code. If you get rid of it, you get rid of the space.

could you try this? Adding display flex and making the padding to 0 normally helps me.



.container{
width: 80%;
margin: 0 auto;
position: relative;
padding: 0;
/*border: 1px solid black;*/
clear:both;
background-color: #FFF;
height: 100vh;
display:flex;
overflow:hidden;
}
