I think I may have answered my own question just now:... -
As an update, I've gotten a function (adjustHeight) that works pretty well within IE7 and doesn't need to work in IE6 since contents cant spill out of divs under that rendering.
It's a little simpler. Below is my code. Maybe someone knows why Firefox isn't interpreting it as I expect? I don't think any DOM properties I use are unsupported (I've used them in other ways successfully) so I'm not sure what's up.

Liquid tableless layout, height difficulties (expand OK, shrink not OK)
Longtime reader, 1st time poster :)
I am in the process of overhauling a website and replacing an old table-based quirksmode layout with a standards-mode tableless one. I am currently working on pop-up webpages which used to be liquid and proportionally resizable (including input fields on them), something I have found to be tough to reproduce without tables and quirksmode.
My current layout (below) actually behaves...
