From my experiences, height at 100% is a no go. As of today the height of a web page is limitless so that by setting a % value yields nothing. It is width that can be controlled more efficiently. It would be better to use either a fixed height value such as px or em than using %. A drawback to use a fixed height value is that text may run outside the box if the text is longer than the height fixed. The % allows elasticity or fluidness only for width and for web browsers as we know them today, this for setting for height does not exist using the % value. You can have height elasticity by not calling height value at all.
