make a div fill the height of an iframe:
Hello,
I have the following scenario:
- An iframe that has fixed width and height and is absolutely
positioned in the middle of the screen (simulating a modal pop up
window)- The document inside that iframe contains 2 divs, both 100%
width. The top one is variable height, and the bottom one should
occupy the space left inside the iframe. If required, scrollbars
should display in the bottom div, but not in the iframe itself.
I made a diagram to try to make it clearer:
+-iframe (fixed width and height)|+-div1----||variable
height|||||+-----------|+-div2----||height should occupy
the ||remaining space in the div, scrollbars show ||inside the div
if required if its contents ||are bigger than the available
space|+----------+----------
Note that this slightly different from the usual requirement, which
is to dynamically resize the iframe accordingly to its contents.
Is this possible to be done with just CSS? (assume the most recent
browsers will be used i.e. Chrome, IE8+ etc)
ThanksLuis

If you make the 2nd DIV a table would that work (ie: Show the scroll
bars as needed but not affect the height of the iframe or add scroll
bars to it)?
