Content of element not 100% in IE10 inside of equal height columns

Question

For an application I am working on I need equal height columns. I chose to use CSS to style my column items as table\'s. In this way the height of each columns is indeed the max

Percentages along with height can be a funny one. I find that the way to get it right is to use jquery:

$('.element').height($('.element').parent().height()/100 * //percentage goes here);
