vh and calc() in chrome

[jarvis101]

So I'm trying to size a bar which has size and position relative to the browser window, and so I wrote a piece of code which achieved this :

 

 

/* 25 pixel hieght, 100% browser width, fixed position at the bottom of the browser */#element{    height: 25px;    margin-top : calc(100vh - 25px); //Issue here with chrome    position : fixed;    background-color : #c8c8c8;    width : 10%;}

 

My issue is that there's a bug with google chrome, where viewpoints don't work inside calc(). Apparently the developer who wrote the code to support viewpoints in chrome hasn't worked at google for almost a year now, so according to bug reports there's no fix in sight.

 

Any suggestions on how to work around this issue?
