table.height=? will not yield any results, but table.style.height does, while 
table.width DOES yield results

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
setting tag does not set it in the DOM object (checked in DOM object console)

Expected Results:  
expect height to get bigger...

Table elements have a width attribute but not a height attribute:

Likewise, table elements have a width property but not a height property:
