Suppose I make a table that looks like
---------
| A | |
|---| |
| B | D |
|---| |
| C | |
---------
What I'd like to do is to have cells A and B only be as high as they
need to be based on their contents, and cell C to take up the remainder
of the vertical space. Can someone tell me how to do this?
Please reply by e-mail as well as posting, if possible.

Make the height of the third cell 100%. Won't take up 100% of the browser
window, will take up 100% of the available space.

It works in IE6 and FireFox? Is it not valid? If not, what's the proper
coding to do a wildcard-type value? I wonder....

Ah ha!
Of course, the default is "*" anyway (or at least "undefined" ) so the
browser calculates it automatically.

well... then how do you define the table's height? (without CSS?)
You're right though, I just rechecked the specs and it's not listed and
my pocket guide HTML book has "height" listed as "nonstandar d".

You don't :)
Browsers are expected by authors to perform some magic to make things look
like they want, without any specification about how nested tables, widths
that don't add up 100% and the relation with the viewport are to be
handled.
CSS does have such rules on how (percentage) heigths are supposed to work,
but browsers should forget most of them when handling tables...

lol ..
IE has always auto maticly done that.. but watch.. netscape might look
retarded.
BTW: not defining a cell size defaults to 10px
However!!!!!\
<Table width="40" Height="40" border="1" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1"
bordercolordark ="#006699" bordercolorligh t="#009999">
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
</table>
That code will auto set each cell to 20px X 20px.. coding with undefinded
height and width.. can cause probs.. i recomend adjusting each TR height..
for content in pixels or percent.. i use pixels.. but whitch ever you are
comfortable with.
