height

[Mark]

Hi there

i am a bit new to css and can not figure out how to extend a "container"
to 100%. This is what i mean:

..container {
float:left;
background-color:#7A8B5E;
width:142px;

}

Forms a place on the website where i can insert text or something. I
want this place to extend to the bottom of the browser, so i thought to add:

height:100;

But that does not do the trick. Anyone?

Thanks in advance,
Mark (NL)

:0) It must be the sun over here ;)
Thanks a lot! I did forget that the "container" was also
"othername_cont ainer" etc... So, now it works.
