Menu
I have a setup requiring a div filling 100% of the screen with a margin of 10px. Inside that, there is a navigation pane at the top followed by a content div below with a padding and an inner content dive with a padding. However, using the 100% height of parent and then adding a margin/padding stretches the div to 100% + margin + padding. Is there a fix for this? I noticed the absolute positioning trick, but that messes up the flow of the other divs if I absolutely position my content div. It also makes the resizing and flow non-liquid. Any way to keep those things and still achieve my goal, preferrably with CSS and not javascript?
Code Below:
ASPX
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >
<head>
<title>Untitled Page</title>
<link rel="Stylesheet" href="test.css" />
</head>
<body>
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="navigation">
</div>
<div id="content">
<div id="inner">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
CSS

You can try adding box-sizing:border-box onto any elements which you want to have 100% height and padding at the same time.
Works in IE8+ and the good browsers, so browser support is actually quite good
