Is there anyway for an absolute positioned child to expand to fill its relative positioned parent? (The height of parent is not fixed) Here is what i did and it is working fine with Firefox and IE7 but not IE6. :(
<div id="parent">
<div id="child1"></div>
</div>
#parent { position: relative; width: 200px; height:100%; background:red }
#child1 { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 200px; height: 100%; background:blue }
