How to make div same height as parent (displayed as table-cell)

Question

Another option is to set your child div to display: inline-block;

.content {
    display: inline-block;
    height: 100%;
    width: 100%;
    background-color: blue;
}

.container {
  display: table;
}
.child {
  width: 30px;
  background-color: red;
  display: table-cell;
  vertical-align: top;
}
.content {
  display: inline-block;
  height: 100%;
  width: 100%;
  background-color: blue;
}
