or do you mean that because there's nothing to fill with 'table' tag in my above statement that's the reason it doesn't fill the screen? Well, no shit. In other words it doesn't work.

I specified the body to have 0 margin = screen full of emptiness to be filled, so why doesn't the table height 100% fill it? Since body is basically the parent-tag of table, no?
