[snip] Without adding height at all, the div should automagically stretch to contain its content. However, seeing as you are using position:absolute, I'm guessing you gave other elements in the page position:absolute as well, so that the stretched content div is probably being covered by for example the footer. If that is the case, the solution lies in not using position:absolute for some or all of the elements in the page. Impossible to tell without seeing the whole page though.
