You're welcome

What I posted is a "one-time" expression, to avoid performance cost, but if you
do not care about that then you can try this instead:
* html .myAbsolutelyPositionedElement {
height: expression((this.parentNode.offsetHeight/2) + "px");
}
Be aware that in this case it will be almost constantly evaluated, so a pure
javascript solution may be a better idea, but that's off-topic.
