css

hi,

I want to display a children element of my html page all over the browser window.. in other words I would like to enlarge it and keep it the same size the browser window also when it is resized after loading.

I was wondering if I have to move this object outside the parent elements or I can set these properties with css.

At the moment if I set width:100% and height:100%, it fits the parent (of course) and not the window.

thanks
