Position div across the screen

Question

I’m creating a home and want to position a div (with a background image) across the visible screen when the page loads. I did it this way:

.home-entrada{
    position: absolute;
    bottom: 0;
    top: 0;
    width: 100%;
}

It works perfectly, but the problem is that there is still content to be shown below, and this content is superimposed on this div, since it has position Absolute. I’ve thought about creating a relative and putting Absolute inside, but how would I leave the relative top: 0 and bottom: 0?

Image with the height:100%; and position: relative;. OBS: body and html com height: 100% also. The site is all bugged up so I’m reforming it yet...

Answer 1

if you define a height: 100% to the html and body, you can define a height: 100% for your div.home-entrada without having to define a position: absolute.

html, body {
  position: relative;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
  margin: 0px;
  padding: 0px;
}

#capa {
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
}

#capa {
  position: relative;
  background-color: royalblue;
  margin-bottom: 5px;
  box-shadow: 0px 0px 5px black;
}

#icon {
  position: relative;
  top: 50%;
  left: 50%;
  transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
  height: 196px;
  width: 196px;
}

#icon rect, #icon path {
  fill: white;
}
