That's because, I'm guessing, you haven't told 100% what to be 100
percent *of*. You need to give a height to the parent, and to its
parent, all the way up to the html element. This page may help you:
http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=100PercentHeight
Or, you could actually be wanting to create equal height columns:

With more information and a link to your page we could give you more
relevant help.
