Apologies, my last solution wasn't quite there. This one works in both IE6 and Firefox 1.0.6:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd"> <html style="height:100%;"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <title>Border Spacing Test</title> </head> <body style="height:100%; margin:0; padding:0;"> <table style="height: 100%; width: 100%; border:1px solid #333; margin:0; padding:0;"> <tr><td style="height: 90%; padding:.5em;">this td should take up almost all the height</td></tr> <tr><td style="height:8%; padding:.5em;">footer (should be on very bottom of screen)</td></tr> </table> </body> </html> Regards, Ron
