Custom Background for Modal Div Does Not Fill Page

Sep 18.2010

I have the following setup to create a modal div. In IE7 compatibility mode, the background DIV does not fill the entire page. It appears to only fill the page to the bottom of the content.

[code]
 <div id=”DIV_MessageDetail” runat=”server” style=”position:absolute;display:none;width:100%;height:100%;top:0px;left:0px”>
<div style=”position:absolute;filter:alpha(opacity=66);background-color:red;height:100%;width:100%”>
</div>
<div style=”z-index:1000;position:absolute;background-color:#FFFFFF;margin:auto;top:100px;left:150px;border:solid 3px #000000″>
content
</div>
[/code]

[Code]

<div id="DIV_MessageDetail" runat="server" style="position:absolute;display:none;width:100%;height:100%;top:0px;left:0px">
<div style="position:absolute;filter:alpha(opacity=66);background-color:Gray;height:100%;width:100%">
</div>

<div style="z-index:1000;position:absolute;background-color:#FFFFFF;margin:auto;top:100px;left:150px;border:solid 3px #000000">


</div>
</div>
