Make table height 100% without css

I got a task to make a table layout like we in 1997, without any css at all, and i got stuck with setting main table a 100% height. So, without any style attributes only with tools available in 1997, how i can make it? I found out a working solution for modern browsers - deleting DOCTYPE, but it is obviously a hack. Setting body and html height="100%" also doesn't work

The width and height properties of a <table> are not supported in HTML5. So you're going to need to remove the <!DOCTYPE html> declaration from your mark up in any case. Or use CSS.

Given you said that you can't use CSS, then ensure that you have removed that <!DOCTYPE html> declaration from your mark up and then you can set the height of your <table> as follows:

<table height="100%">

This should do the job for you!
