When using DIVs or any tags using a "display: block;" style, within <FORM> tags.
Percentage based heights will be ignored and the default height of 0px will be used.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a black page.
2. Create a <DIV style="height: 100%; border: 1px solid black;"> with text in it.
3. Surround DIV with <FORM> tags.
Actual Results:
DIV appears collapsed, only displaying the border and contained text below DIV.
Expected Results:
DIV borders should extend the full height of the browser window (minus the
default margin and padding).

Does this only happen inside a table?

No, you don't need it to be inside of a table.
The following code is all you need to reproduce the bug.
<html>
<body>
<form>
<div style="height: 100%; background-color: #E6E6E6; border: 1px solid black;">
This is a test
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
The example in comment 2 shouldn't even work without the FORM. See
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visudet.html#propdef-height :
If the height of the containing block is not specified explicitly (i.e.,
it depends on content height), and this element is not positioned, the
value is interpreted like 'auto'.

Looks like a quirks-only problem.... We're making the height "0" instead of "auto".

I found a workaround for this bug, incase anyone else runs into it. Add a
"height: 10%" style to the <form> tag.

both the quirks mode and standards mode testcases look identical in the
2003-03-26-04trunk build on winXP.
the height assumes to take the 'auto' value, not '0'.
could this have accidently got fixed?
