Hello
This is probably something simple, but I can't seem to find an answer. Consider
the following code
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html style="width: 100%; height: 100%">
<body style="width: 100%; height: 100%">
<table style="width: 100%; height: 100%">
<tr><td style="height: 20px; border: 1px solid black"><p>1</p></td></tr>
<tr><td><p>2</p></td></tr>
<tr><td style="height: 20px; border: 1px solid black"><p>3</p></td></tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
I want the first and the last row to have explicitly specified height and the
middle row to occupy the rest of the entire table height. The problem is that IE
6 is ignoring the 'height' specification for the first and the last rows' cells.
Every row in IE appears take exactly 1/3 of the table's height.
MS FrontPage's user interface ('Style' dialog) seems to suggest that in order to
use 'height' property I also have to specify a 'position' property (is this the
case?). Anyway, adding, say, 'position: relative' to the above 'td' styles
doesn't change anything.
Mozilla, on the other hand, seems to do what I expect it to do.
Am I doing something wrong? If that's the case, what's the right way to achieve
the required distribution of row heights?
