User-Agent: Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040113 Using the XHTML 1.1 DTD: If you apply a CSS definition for the default rendering of the <html> element that includes a height assignment, the height assignment is ignored. By default, the <html> element is rendered to fill 100% of the vertical space of the canvas (less any margin & border settings). Reducing the size of the canvas (window) resizes the <html> element until the element is the minimum size to contain the <body> content. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Apply the following CSS: ------------------------------ html { background-color:Teal; border:solid 2px yellow; margin-top:10px; margin-bottom:10px; margin-left:10px; margin-right:10px; padding-top:10px; padding-bottom:10px; padding-left:10px; padding-right:10px; width:80%; height:500px; } body { background-color:White; border:solid 2px red; margin:50px; padding:10px; width:500px; height:400px; } ------------------------------ 2. Create a simple web page that references the XHTML 1.1 DTD. Include above CSS in an external reference. A simple web page containing a small amount of text container(s) in the <body> tag. (a single <p> is sufficient) 3. Vertically resize the window to note the dynamic resizing of the <html> element regardless of the element's defined "height" property. Actual Results: Mozilla did not honor the height setting. - Width settings are honored. Expected Results: The software should have drawn the yellow border @ the 500px mark, and the border should not have resized when the window's vertical dimensions were adjusted. I also attempted to apply the height style setting inline, and was unsuccessful.
