Hi,

I would like to put a 100% high div on my page, but for some reason I 
just can?t get it to work. I use the method described in the ?One True 
Layout -> Equal Height Columns? [1] with no luck. The markup is dead 
simple

<div id="container">
        <div id="contents">
                <p>
                        dfsdd
                </p>
                </div>
</div>

Nothing fancy here and the css is also equally as simple

*
{
        margin: 0;
        padding: 0;
}
                
#container
{
        background-color: #00f;
        width: 796px;
        overflow: hidden;
}

#contents
{
        background-color: #0f0;
        padding-bottom: 32767px;
        margin-bottom: -32767px;
}

Using this makrup + css, the div doesn?t expand [2]. However I?ve 
found that if I add something AFTER the inner div then it will expand 
but there is no overflow clipping taking place [3]?

<div id="container">
        <div id="contents">
                <p>
                        dfsdd
                </p>
</div>
TEXT TO MAKE IT EXPAND
</div>

This is all being tested in IE6, but it doesn?t work in firefox 
either. Any idea on why it?s acting up?
