[OpenLayers-Users] width+height 100% in standards-compliant mode

Wed Jun 4 08:00:43 EDT 2008

The quickest way I found to do this and to keep the website standards
compliant is to implement JavaScript to do my resizing for me. The following
code is what I use (please note that I only tested in the major web
browsers):

<script type="text/javascript">
    window.onresize = resizeWindow;
    function resizeWindow() {
        var browser_height    = 0;
        try {
            if (parseInt(document.documentElement.clientHeight) >
browser_height) {
                browser_height =
parseInt(document.documentElement.clientHeight);
            }
        } catch(e) {  }
        if (!browser_height || isNaN(browser_height)) { browser_height = 0;
}
        if (browser_height == 0) {
            try {
                if (parseInt(document.body.clientHeight) > browser_height) {
                    browser_height = parseInt(document.body.clientHeight);
                }
            } catch(e) {  }
            if (!browser_height || isNaN(browser_height)) { browser_height =
0; }
        }
        document.getElementById('map').style.height = browser_height+'px';
    }
</script>
<body onload="resizeWindow();init();">
