[thelist] making a div stretch to the bottom

[Eduardo Dominguez]

I dont have any html to show, since I dont know how to achieve it.
I want to have two absolute positioned divs that have a the height
enough so that the both "reach" the bottom of the window, like so:

(this is the browser window)
+-------------------------------+
|
|
|  +------+
|  |      |   +--------+
|  | div  |   |        |
|  |      |   |  other |

[... more lines of text ....]

|  |      |   |   div  |
|  |      |   |        |          <-- both divs end in the bottom
+--+------+---+--------+--------+


is this possible ??

I have tried by setting a width of 100%. Other than that I dont know
what to try.

thanks in advance for any help
