Kindly look at the following code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
</head>
<body>
<table id="content" height="525" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr style="height:9px"><td height="9" bgcolor="#990000">Upper</td></tr>
<tr><td bgcolor="#990099">Lower</td></tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
IE ignores the "height:9px" and I can't get what I want. Also, without the DOCTYPE, it works. But I have to follow the standard so that DOCTYPE cannot be removed. Does anyone how to fix the height of the upper row?
Some clarifications: 1. The height of second row may vary according to users' action and cannot be fixed. 2. The height of the table is set to 525px so the table has a minimum height of 525px

This works, as long as you remove the height attribute from the table.
<table id="content" border="0px" cellspacing="0px" cellpadding="0px">
<tr><td height='9px' bgcolor="#990000">Upper</td></tr>
<tr><td height='100px' bgcolor="#990099">Lower</td></tr>
</table>
my css
TR.gray-t {background:#949494;}
h3{
padding-top:3px;
font:bold 12px/2px Arial;
}
my html
<TR class='gray-t'>
<TD colspan='3'><h3>KAJANG</h3>
I decrease the 2nd size in font.
padding-top is used to fix the size in IE7.
