<!-- CSS 2.1 Reference

Property Name: height


Default Value: auto
Inherited: no
Possible values directly from the standard:
length, percentage, auto, inherit

Property Description:

This property sets the height of the block element that it's assigned to. Non-block elements are assigned a height value derived from either an inherent property, or the line-height property value. Negative values are not allowed. If the inherent height of an element is higher than the assigned height value (for example, a paragraph of text takes up more room than the property explicitly assigns), the content that flows over the assigned height value will be displayed according to the element's overflow property value. Directly related properties: min-height and max-height. Understanding the Box Model is generally required to properly implement this property.


Example:

#defined_area { height: 100px; width: 250px; }
