div has width of 250px and height of 35px ,inside it there is an anchor with width and height 100% but at runtime anchor width not rendering as 250px and height is not rendering as 35px its stretching depending on data.

CSS

div.css
{
height:35px;
width:500px;
}
a.css
{
height:100%;
width:100%;
display:table - cell;
text-align:center;
vertical-align:middle;
}

output for anchor width and height 25px and 10px depending on data inside its span.
