I want to have a strip down the middle of the screen with my websites content as common on many web pages. I don't want to use background images to achieve the look, rather I was thing of having a div tag that would fill the entire height of the screen. I would just set the height of the div using window.innerHeight
Is there a better way to achieve the look I want?
Thanks,
David
Sorry, I don't know what you are trying to describe.
However, I can guess that CSS alone, or a frameset, or a table will do what you want.
CSS is the professional way to do it; a table is the easy way.
For example, http://www.soluto.com/
I want the content of my page to be in a stripe that runs down the page. However if the content would not fill the window, I still want the "stripe" to fill the window.
I don't want to use frames, and I'm pretty sure you can't do it with css alone, but I could be wrong.

That's a simple combination of tables and divs.

CSS can do absolutely anything that a table can do, plus a lot more.
