Frontpage and table sizing

Sulphy

Ello 😃

I'm designing a site using tables, where the tables size and height have been set to 100% so that when someone visits the page, the cells will grow to fill the entire screen.

This worked fine, until i included PHP, now the cells don't expand properly, there is a gap in the right hand margin and the bottom of the page.

The only way to resolve it is to click 'refresh' on the browser' and then the cells correctly expand to fill the entire screen. But if i click 'login' in my page, the same issue arrises, right hand margin and bottom of page is left with a gap.

Any suggestions to remedy this problem, it's annoying because it upsets the layout of my site, its minor, but i can't see why it does it.

Thanks In Advance

Pete 😃
