Night s answer is correct   html  body  margin 0 padding 0 height 100      Also check that your div or element is NOT inside another one  with height less than 100   Hope this helps someone else

You probably need to declare the code below for height 100  to work for your divs  html  body  margin 0 padding 0 height 100         fiddle  http   jsfiddle net 5KYC3

I would say you have two options    to get all parent divs styled with 100  height  including body and html  to use absolute positioning for one of the parent divs  for example  content  and then all child divs set to height 100

You aren t specifying the  height  of your html  When you re assigning a percentage in an element  i e  divs  the css compiler needs to know the size of the parent element  If you don t assign that  you should see divs without height   The most common solution is to set the following property in css   html      height  100       margin  0      padding  0      You are saying to the html tag  html is the parent of all the html elements   Take all the height in the HTML document   I hope I helped you  Cheers

I believe you need to make sure that all the container div tags above the 100  height div also has 100  height set on them including the body tag and html
