SSRS ReportViewerWebPart Height Issue

Question

I am working with a customized page that has an embedded ReportViewerWebPart inside of a content tag. In this case, it's inside of "PlaceHolderMain".

It looks like this:

<asp:Content ContentPlaceHolderID="PlaceHolderMain" runat="server">
<asp:Panel ID="Panel1" runat="server" Width="100%" Height="100%" >  
    <RSWP:ReportViewerWebPart id="m_sqlRsWebPart" runat="server" ChromeType="None" AsyncRendering="false" Height="100%" Width="100%" HyperlinkTarget="_blank" __WebPartId="{01816587-6AFE-4439-84E1-1137AC5F6800}" />
    <WpNs0:ExcelWebRenderer id="m_excelWebRenderer" runat="server" ChromeType="None" WebPart="true" Visible="false" Height="100%" __MarkupType="vsattributemarkup" Width="" __WebPartId="{1CFA4569-7F41-4832-A8FD-F6665177E209}" />
</asp:Panel>
</asp:Content>

Despite the fact that I have Height="100%" specified, the ReportViewerWebPart is not expanding to take up 100% of the view. Has anyone seen this behavior and if so, is there any workaround. I'm using Assembly="Microsoft.ReportingServices.SharePoint.UI.WebParts,Version=10.0.0.0".

I'm thinking it probably isn't related to the height and width of the ReportViewerWebPart. Since it renders as a DIV with a height and width of 100%, it probably is one of the containing elements.

An easy check would be to give your Panel a static height/width (for example... 600px) and make sure the ReportViewerWebPart expands to those dimensions.
