</div>

When setting " height:100%; " the height only goes to the bottom of the code/images not the bottom of the page (in IE and doesn’t stretch all the way to bottom in Firefox either).

How can I make my height truly stretch to the bottom of the page, regardless of how many images/code is there and what the page zoom is at?

Thank you,
