how to make leaflet map height variable


In my Application I was making div of map as

<div id="map" style="height: 610px; width:100%"></div>

but to make my map responsive I want to make height also 100%, if I make height: 100% then it is not working.

How can I make height also variable like width so that map can be seen properly on any device.

If you change height & width of map then you will not get map.


Solution

  • You need to set the parent elements to height: 100%; first

    html, body {
       height: 100%;
    }
    

    Demo

    Demo (This won't work as no parent height is defined)

    Explanation: Why do you need to do that? So when you specify an element's height in % then the 1st question that arises is: 100% of what? By default, a div has height of 0px, so 100% for a div simply won't work, but setting the parent elements height to 100%; will work.
