Be careful your testcase isn't a valid HTML document, the body element is
missing and the form element is misplaced :

Just remove the form element to get the table in full height, or set the height
of the form to 100%. But keep in mind this is just a quirks, it will no longer
work in standard mode.

The testcase in Bug 220151 is exactly the same as in this bug. The table takes
100% of the height allocated to the form, and not 100% of the page, that's the
correct behaviour imho. Setting the form height to 100% is a solution, removing
the form is another one. What site is using this code ? This could turn into an
evangelism bug.
