Hi,  I get the list in digest format so I hope this goes to the right place.

I'm not entirely sure this will work, especially in IE6, but, if you set
#app_container to:
position: absoulute;
top: 0;
right: 0;
left: 0;
bottom: 0;

you may be able to
have a full-height effect without having to explicitly declare a
height on every element.  It's a stretch, but maybe it'll work.
