HTML question: nested table at 100% height via CSS
I have a main table at 100% height and 100% width
It has two cells each 100% height
Inside the right cell I need another table, also 100% height
This renders ok in firefox, but IE doesn't render it correctly - the height isn't 100%, its just whatever the contents of the cells are.
Can someone tell me if its possible to have a nested table in IE, that is 100% height ?

I think this is what you want? This works fine in FF, IE6 & IE7. The border is on so you can see it.

Code:
<html>
<head>
<title>test</title>
</head>
<body>
<table style="WIDTH: 100%; BORDER: black 1px solid; HEIGHT: 100%">
<tr>
<td style="WIDTH: 50%; VERTICAL-ALIGN: top;">a</td>
<td style="WIDTH: 50%"><table style="BORDER: black 1px solid; WIDTH: 100%; HEIGHT: 100%;">
<tr>
<td style="VERTICAL-ALIGN: top;">b</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

The problem I'm having is rendering a table of 100% height, inside a table thats 100% height (using CSS)
I've approached the problem a different way now, so the above solution is no longer needed.
I would be curious if it can be done tho'
