Stephen,
Kudos to you on this. I personally found this very useful on a project of
mine.
Cheers,
Lisa Wilcox
For a long time I have been trying to find a way to create a page which
fills the viewport but leaves a border around the content. For example, a
div which is 100%-4em wide and high, with a 2em border.
Unfortunately the css box model doesn't make this easy.
I have found a way to do this with css which I believe is novel:

In essence, I use a hidden floating div with height: 100% and margin: -4em.
This marks the bottom of the div. Then, I create the content div, and place
another hidden div inside it which has float: none. This stretches the
content box below the floating div.
I hope this is useful to someone.
Regards,
Stephen Nelson
