title: jquery ui layout height is too short
body: <p>I am trying to put a layout together with <a href="http://layout.jquery-dev.net" rel="nofollow noreferrer">jquery-ui-layout</a> and can't overcome the height problem.</p>
  
  <p>Here's the HTML code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;body&gt;
  &lt;div id="wrapper"&gt;
      &lt;div id="header"&gt;
          &lt;a class="logo" href="/"&gt;
              &lt;img src="/media/bdo.png" width="154" height="38"/&gt;
          &lt;/a&gt;
          &lt;ul class="top-menu"&gt;
              &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="/"&gt;report fill out&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
              &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="/reports_browser/"&gt;browse reports&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
          &lt;/ul&gt;
          &lt;div class="user"&gt;
              hi there
              &lt;/div&gt;
      &lt;/div&gt;
      &lt;div id="content"&gt;
  
      &lt;div class="ui-layout-west" id="consultants"&gt;west&lt;/div&gt;
      &lt;div class="ui-layout-center" id="contacts"&gt;center&lt;/div&gt;
      &lt;div class="ui-layout-east" id="details"&gt;east&lt;/div&gt;
  
      &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;div id="footer"&gt;
      &lt;ul class="links"&gt;
          &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="#"&gt;help&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
          &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="#"&gt;report an issue&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
      &lt;/ul&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/body&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>There is <a href="http://pastebin.com/fHbtYDLb" rel="nofollow noreferrer">styles.css</a> I use for all the pages (it's rather large to past into here).</p>
  
  <p>The javascript I use for this is rather simple, too:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;
  $(document).ready(function(){
      myLayout = $("#content").layout({
          applyDefaultStyles: true
      });
      myLayout.sizePane('west',500);
  });
  &lt;/script&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But the output is that all three panels are so short as per the screenshot below. How can I fix the height of the layout to fit the whole page and go all the way down to the footer?
