height

The height CSS media feature can be used to apply styles based on the height of the {{glossary("viewport")}} (or the page box, for paged media).

Syntax

The height feature is specified as a {{cssxref("<length>")}} value representing the viewport height. It is a range feature, meaning that you can also use the prefixed min-height and max-height variants to query minimum and maximum values, respectively.

Examples

HTML

<div>Watch this element as you resize your viewport's height.</div>

CSS

/* Exact height */
@media (height: 360px) {
  div {
    color: red;
  }
}

/* Minimum height */
@media (min-height: 25rem) {
  div {
    background: yellow;
  }
}

/* Maximum height */
@media (max-height: 40rem) {
  div {
    border: 2px solid blue;
  }
}
