Subha,

It's not that the browser isn't recognising ro ignoring the height attribute, it's that when you are in a standards compliance mode, it's expanding it to 100% height of the html and body area.

In order to fix this you can add the following code:

Code: Select all

html,body{
      margin:0;
      padding:0;
      height:100%;
      border:none
   }

Your table should expand to the height you then set.

P.S why not switch to CSS tabless design, much nicer.....
