Hi nmiddleweek,
I've solved this problem (for a DIV which should (nearly) fill the
window) by setting the height on the fly by a small piece of
javascript:

function setDataSectionHeight(){
                var pageHeight=window.innerHeight;     // most browsers ex IE
                if (pageHeight==undefined)
{pageHeight=document.body.clientHeight;} // workaround for IE
                document.getElementById('dataFrame').style.height=pageHeight*.8;
        }

You have to change      the last line in order to get to the correct height
(being pageHeight - '55 px').  And you have to give your table row/cel
(or add DIV in the cell) the id 'dataFrame' (or anything you think
appropriate)

I run this function in <BODY  onLoad='setDataSectionHeight()'>

Hope this helps
Insomniux
