This post could sound like a duplicate but it isn't, please read first.

I want the main container (<main role="main" class="container">) to be full-height between header and footer using Bootstrap 4. Here is my html code :

// Initialize tooltip component
$(function () {
    $('[data-toggle="tooltip"]').tooltip()
})

// Initialize popover component
$(function () {
    $('[data-toggle="popover"]').popover()
})
.container{
    width: 100%;  min-height: 100% !important;
    min-height:calc(100% - 110px); !important;
    margin: 0 auto -33px; 
    border: solid blue; 
}

I already googled, and I've applied the methods of the following posts:

  • css - Stretch div between header and footer
  • css - How to create div to fill all space between header and footer div ...
  • html - how to make DIV height 100% between header and footer ...
  • html - Content with 100% between header and footer
  • css - Make a div fill the height of the remaining screen space - Stack ...

And a lot more… But nothing work in my situation.

Please help!

People also ask

How do I make my Div 100% of my body?

Using 100vh instead means that the p tag will be 100% height of the body regardless of the div height.

Why does my div have no height?

The reason why the height or the containers is 0 is because you are floating all the content inside them and floated elements don't expand the height (or width) of their parents.

How can I fix the height of a container in bootstrap?

Width and Height Utilities The width and height can be set for an element, by using 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%, and auto values. For instance, use w-25 (for remaining values, replace 25 with those values) for width utility and h-25 (for remaining values, replace 25 with those values) for height utility.

Revisiting this question using the newer Bootstrap 4.4.x class (no extra CSS needed)

<div class="d-flex flex-column overflow-hidden min-vh-100 vh-100">
   <header>
        <nav class="navbar navbar-expand-md navbar-dark bg-dark">
            ...
        </nav>
   </header>
   <main role="main" class="flex-grow-1 overflow-auto">
        <div class="container">
            <div class="row mt-3">
                <div class="col-sm-12 col-md-3">
                    Aside
                </div>
                <div class="col"> 
                    Main
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
   </main>
   <footer class="container-fluid flex-grow-0 flex-shrink-1">
       ...
   </footer>
</div>

The result is a full-height layout header/nav, footer, and scrolling main content area in the middle. The footer is always at the bottom regardless of page height.

Flexbox is your friend here too.

However, before you read any further: you should not use the alpha version of Bootstrap 4 any more as beta 2 is out!

.container {
    border: solid blue; 
}

html {
    height: 100%;
}
body {
    display: flex;
    flex-direction: column;
    min-height: 100vh;
}

main {
    flex: 1;
    margin-top: 56px;
}

footer {
    height: 10vh;
}
<header>
    <nav class="navbar navbar-toggleable-md navbar-inverse bg-inverse fixed-top">
        <button class="navbar-toggler navbar-toggler-right" type="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#navbarsExampleDefault" aria-controls="navbarsExampleDefault" aria-expanded="false" aria-label="Toggle navigation">
            <span class="navbar-toggler-icon"></span>
        </button>
        <a class="navbar-brand" href="#" data-placement="right" data-animation="false" data-toggle="tooltip" title="Aller à Mes Summaries">My Logo</a>
    </nav>
</header>


<!-- Begin page content -->
<main role="main" class="container">
    <div class="row mt-3" style="border: solid green">
        <div class="col-sm-12 col-md-3" style="border: solid red; height: 200%;">col</div>
        <div class="col-sm-12 col-md-5">col</div>
        <div class="col-sm-12 col-md-4">col</div>
    </div>
</main>

<footer>
    <nav class="navbar navbar-toggleable-md navbar-inverse bg-inverse h-100"></nav>
</footer>


<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0-alpha.6/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>

Basically this solution makes body a flex container with it's items stacked in columns. With that in place, flex: 1; on <main> stretches <main> to fill the available height and pushing <footer> into the bottom. With that .fixed-bottom is not needed any more.

Update: I've updated the markup above to conform Bootstrap 4 beta 2. This is as follows:

html {
    height: 100vh;
}

body {
    display: flex;
    flex-direction: column;
    min-height: 100vh;
}

main {
    flex: 1;
    margin-top: 56px;
}

footer {
    height: 10vh;
}

.container {
    border: solid blue; 
}
<header>
    <nav class="navbar navbar-expand-md navbar-dark bg-dark fixed-top">
        <button class="navbar-toggler navbar-toggler-right" type="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#navbarsExampleDefault" aria-controls="navbarsExampleDefault" aria-expanded="false" aria-label="Toggle navigation">
            <span class="navbar-toggler-icon"></span>
        </button>
        <a class="navbar-brand" href="#" data-placement="right" data-animation="false" data-toggle="tooltip" title="Aller à Mes Summaries">My Logo</a>
    </nav>
</header>

<!-- Begin page content -->
<main role="main" class="container">
    <div class="row mt-3" style="border: solid green">
        <div class="col-sm-12 col-md-3" style="border: solid red; height: 200%;">col</div>
        <div class="col-sm-12 col-md-5">col</div>
        <div class="col-sm-12 col-md-4">col</div>
    </div>
</main>

<footer>
    <nav class="navbar navbar-toggleable-md navbar-inverse bg-dark h-100"></nav>
</footer>


<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0-beta.2/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>

To update your markup from alpha 6 to beta 2 you have to make the following changes: rename .navbar-expand-md to .navbar-expand-md, .navbar-inverse to .navbar-dark and .bg-inverse to .bg-dark.

Check the snippet. I fix your code and I change html. At this point main content should be fixed position and footer should be fixed height.

// Initialize tooltip component
    $(function () {
        $('[data-toggle="tooltip"]').tooltip()
    })

    // Initialize popover component
    $(function () {
        $('[data-toggle="popover"]').popover()
    })
main{
  height: calc(100% - 54px - 30px); /* Height should 100% - header height - footer height */
  left: 0;
  overflow-x: hidden; /* If you need scrollbar */
  overflow-y: auto;/* If you need scrollbar */
  position: fixed;
  top: 54px; /* Header height */
  width: 100%;
  z-index: 1;
  background-color: #f5f5f5;
  border: 5px solid #ff0000;
}
