#index container height

supay / 2013-01-04 17:45:45   

in style.css:
the #index container width is restricted to a certain amount of px: 215px
i learned to increase this amount carefully so far, great
but what about the height parameter? it seems to be restricted too?
770px? where do i find this value exactly??
ist it possible to change it? (to avoid the awful scrollbars when the
browser window et smaller?)

thank you very much for any hint!!

That's because the height is depended on the content (ie the content of index)
Scrollbar should appear on smaller browser windows - otherwise part of the index is gonna be hidden (and users won't know that "there's more")
Mind you - #index 100% of the browser window and #index .container is basically adding paddings, margins etc. Css semantics are important.

thank you for the Answer Arsondpi.
I am learning to work - & design- with css (beginner)
so I think I understand this point
trying to adjust the paddings now!
