How to split page into 4 equal parts?

Demo at http://jsfiddle.net/CRSVU/

html,
body {
  height: 100%;
  padding: 0;
  margin: 0;
}

div {
  width: 50%;
  height: 50%;
  float: left;
}

#div1 {
  background: #DDD;
}

#div2 {
  background: #AAA;
}

#div3 {
  background: #777;
}

#div4 {
  background: #444;
}
<div id="div1"></div>
<div id="div2"></div>
<div id="div3"></div>
<div id="div4"></div>

If you want to have control over where they are placed separate from source code order:

html, body { height: 100%; margin: 0; padding: 0 }

div { position: fixed; width: 50%; height: 50% }

#NW { top: 0;   left: 0;   background: orange }
#NE { top: 0;   left: 50%; background: blue }
#SW { top: 50%; left: 0;   background: green }
#SE { top: 50%; left: 50%; background: red }
<div id="NW"></div>
<div id="NE"></div>
<div id="SE"></div>
<div id="SW"></div>

JSFiddle demo

Note: if you want padding on your regions, you'll need to set the box-sizing to border-box:

div {
  /* ... */
  padding: 1em;
  box-sizing: border-box;
  -moz-box-sizing: border-box;
  -webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
}

…otherwise your "50%" width and height become "50% + 2em", which will lead to visual overlaps.
