what do you mean by proper padding in the table cell?

If you have a width of 150px and padding:5px the width of the table cell will be 160px, annoying as that math is to have to do, can't remember how firefox treats this stuff, because I like to keep good control of layouts I almost always use a div inside of table cells to handle padding issues, works better cross browser and requires no css tweaks.

To get table to height:100% in non ie, html must also be set to height:100%;
like this:
body, html {
height:100%;
}
and for body padding:
body {
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
