[08:54:48] arschmitz: do you know of a decent (CSS) technique to have an element will the available vertical space? I've got a header of a somewhat fixed size and want the element below to take up the rest of the page, but not go any larger [08:55:16] whats your browser support? [08:56:18] "modern" [08:57:08] looking around stackoverflow I'm getting the impression that I should use flexbox... [09:03:56] jzaefferer: its one option [09:04:28] jzaefferer: when you say somewhat fixed is it fixed or not lol? [09:04:33] if it is there are more options [09:05:43] Currently it has a fixed size [09:06:36] jzaefferer: so you could do something like setting the lower one to position absolute top0 left0 right0 bottom0 [09:06:45] and give it top padding the size of your header [09:07:05] and position your header absolute above it at top0 left0 [09:09:27] jzaefferer: http://jsbin.com/xehuma/edit?html,css,output [09:12:56] arschmitz: thanks. How can I get the pre to not overflow its container? http://jsbin.com/hoyipusoze/1/edit?html,css,output [09:13:53] jzaefferer: not following what did you do besides delete the word content? [09:14:34] and what do you mean overflow im not seeing any scrolling? [09:15:29] this might work: http://jsbin.com/hoyipusoze/1/edit?html,css,output [09:15:49] ok [09:16:07] jzaefferer: did you change something i dont see any changes besides a deleted word? [09:16:23] no gray box? [09:16:34] gray box? [09:16:58] now? http://jsbin.com/tokuzupiga/1/edit?html,css,output [09:17:13] that i see a gray box [09:17:25] and it scrolls? [09:17:29] yes [09:17:53] is that what you want? [09:37:10] arschmitz: yes, that should work. Will see how it goes when actually integrated into the app [10:17:16] HAPPY BIRTHDAY PARTY [10:17:58] o/
