Full-screen iframe with a height of 100%

by

Is iframe height=100% supported in all browsers?

I am using doctype as:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
   "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

In my iframe code, if I say:

<iframe src="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5867985/xyz.pdf" width="100%" height="100%" />

I mean will it actually take the height of the remaining page (as there is another frame on top with fixed height of 50px)
Is this supported in all major browsers (IE/Firefox/Safari) ?

Also regarding scrollbars, even though I say scrolling="no", I can see disabled scrollbars in Firefox…How do I completely hide scrollbars and set the iframe height automatically?
