But then, I'm not and wasn't on the committee itself, so this is

committee comment on this interpretation, please? I hate to mislead
anyone, but the explanation above fits the evidence.
Wellllll ... I've been directed to:
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/tables.htm
where in section 17.5.3 it explicitly states that height= is a *minimum*
value for the table row. So, "fixed" means the minimum is fixed, not that
the row's height is fixed. Hmmmmmmmmm.
I sit corrected.
So, I guess my work-around of block-container really is an appropriate way.
I hope this helps.
