make a div take up space

[Doug]

I have a table with equal size cells, then i have div tags in each cell.

The div tags have a border and a background, basically to make the
contents look a little better. The problem is each div is a different
size. It would be great if i could make the div take up all of the
space in each cell. Is there a way to do that? I've tried using the
height property in CSS, but that doesn't make the divs any taller.

If you want the divs to use up all the space in the cell...
why don't you just style the cell istead?
