As others told you, there is no height attribute for <col>. And the
styling the <col> in Internet Explorer 6 and in Internet Explorer 7 is
rather unreliable, prone to layout bugs.

Looking for a constrained height on a table is most likely misusing
tables to begin with. Adrienne B. gave you an excellent answer,
exactly the kind of answer I would have given you.
If you want help with your webpage design, then start with providing
us with an url and a short, descriptive, meaningful explanation of
what you are truly trying to achieve, with natural words, not with
code explanations. Maybe you want/need a navigational horizontal list
of 3 links... we don't know..
