Re: PHP creating table for HTML layout

PHP can't help here -- you should do a search on the web for "liquid" website designs, or check out / borrow some code from other sites you've seen work. Although not valid, I've seen height="100%" work on 1000's of sites. Combined with a CSS statement, you should be able to cover all browsers.
