css - Getting the height of a relative div container -
i have div
contains lots of child div
elements. container div
has position
attribute set relative
, , child elements have position
attributes set absolute
. each of has positional data set using top
, left
. wish add footer after container, it's height being registered 0px. there way set it's height expand encompass child elements (via css only, no javascript)?
css specs says:
in absolute positioning model, box explicitly offset respect containing block. [1]
so, css can't expand height of container encompass absolutely positioned div's
