95% DIV at top of page

C

What is a good way for me to place a DIV element at the start
of the document so that its width is that of the browser and
its height is 95% of the browser window.

I'll have stuff below the DIV, but the motivation is that I
want to fill out the DIV with a few elements.

Thanks,

<body style="margin:0;height:100%;padding:0">
<div style="height:95%;border:solid 1px blue">foo</div>
bar<br>
baz<br>
frob<br>
fubar
</body>


margin:0 is needed for IE 5.5 and NN 6.1
height:100% and padding:0 are needed by Opera 7.01

Is this the answer to the question, or is it part of the
question? To make the div as wide as the browser window, I'd
say width:100% would be a way to do it.

(or maybe there are more than just two messages in this
thread that I don't see yet..)
