Hi,

Just wondering i am trying to get 100% height and the only site i know off the does this is the microsoft updates page

[url]http://v5.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/v5consumer/default.aspx?ln=en-us[/url]

How do they manage to always have the footer at the bottom of the page and the header at the top?

Many thanks

Not if you want to ensure maximum usability and availability of your web site for all devices and users. The MS download site can fairly safely assume that you are accessing it from a PC and not a mobile web-enabled device; and besides, they're MS, so if you're not accessing them via IE, then they don't care. ?
