copied!<p>Maybe there is solution with CSS only, but here is jQuery solution. Content below menu will fill rest of space, without scroll bars.</p> <p><strong>HTML</strong> markup will be:</p> <pre><code><div id="menu">SOMETHING IN MENU</div> <div class="content"> <div class="part1"></div> <div class="part2"></div> <div class="part3"></div> <div class="part4"></div> </div> </code></pre> <p><strong>CSS</strong>:</p> <pre><code>body,html{padding:0; margin:0;height:100%;width:100%;} #menu { position: fixed; top: 0; background: blue; height: 50px; width: 100%; } .part1 { width:50%; height: 50%; float: left; background: purple; } .part2 { width:50%; height: 50%; float: left; background: red; } .part3 { width:50%; height: 50%; float: left; background: green; } .part4 { width:50%; height: 50%; float: left; background: silver; } .content{ width: 100%; position: relative; } </code></pre> <p><strong>jQuery</strong>:</p> <pre><code>var height = $(document).height(); var menu_height = $("#menu").height(); var content_height = height - menu_height; $(".content").css("height", content_height); $(".content").css("top", menu_height); </code></pre> <p><a href="http://jsfiddle.net/QEdxW/1/" rel="nofollow"><strong>DEMO</strong></a></p> <p>Most important part is jQuery. First, we need to get height of document (html), then height of menu. Then, we substract menu height from document height, and result is content height. Same result we will apply to top position of content, to avoid overlaping.</p>
