full size Google map doesn't fit to screen size - css

Question

We are building a web application with google map that covers all the main page.
It looks great but when I open it on another computer, with slightly different resolution or screen size, the map size does not change accordingly.
I tried working with "%" instead of "px" but it is even worse and the map disappears.
I found some solutions that use "!important" but it didn't work for me, can't figure out why.
Here is my CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) for the map:
#google-container {
position: relative;
width: 100%;
height: 200px;
background-color: #e7eaf0;
}
#media only screen and (min-width: 768px) {
#google-container {
height: 300px;
}
}
#media only screen and (min-width: 1170px) {
#google-container {
height: 710px;
}
}
#cd-google-map {
position: relative;
}
#cd-google-map address {
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
padding: 1em 1em;
background-color: rgba(211, 104, 104, 0.9);
color: white;
font-size: 13px;
font-size: 0.8125rem;
}
#media only screen and (min-width: 768px) {
#cd-google-map address {
font-size: 15px;
font-size: 0.9375rem;
text-align: center;
}
}
Here is my html (the map is being built in the main.js file):
<section id="cd-google-map">
<div id="google-container"></div>
<div id="cd-zoom-in"></div>
<div id="cd-zoom-out"></div>
<div id="addNewReviewButton" ng-controller="NavCtrl">
<button style="border-color: transparent; background-color: transparent;">
<ng-md-icon icon="add_circle" style="fill: #d43f3a" size="120" ng-click="addNewReview()"></ng-md-icon>
</button>
</div>
</section>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=AIzaSyAl8UrwCupLjkdVfx_IXugrryC8ES32Cz8&language=iw&?v=3.exp&sensor=false&libraries=places"></script>
<script src="js/main.js"></script>
Here is an image of how it looks on my device, when on others it fits perfectly:

Answer 1

You can use vw (viewport width) and vh (viewport height) instead of %
like :
height: 100vh;

Answer 2

It looks like your problem is this CSS:
#media only screen and (min-width: 768px) {
#google-container {
height: 300px;
}
}
If you remove that, you can use percentage sizing (or vh/vw sizing)

Answer 3

I just resolved it you need to change to:
height: 100vh;
and to make these following changes:
<style>
html, body {
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#map {
height: 100%;
}
</style>
Hope that help you as much it helped me.

Answer 4

You may use absolute positioning to fit the whole container to the edges of the browser:
Markup
<div class="map">
the map is here ...
</div>
CSS
.map{
position: absolute;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
right: 0;
left: 0;
}

Answer 5

This gives you a fullscreen map layout.
parent is set to relative, then the IFRAME is treated as child of that parent with position:absolute values.
padding-bottom: (height*100)/width;
for e.g.:
padding-bottom: 56.22% /*(768*100)/1366) - common screen resolution.*/
.table {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
position: relative;
}
iframe {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
bottom: 0;
right: 100%;
padding-bottom: 56.22%;
}
<div class="parent">
