Make a div fill the remaining screen space (text auto fill div)

Chủ Nhật, 9 tháng 1, 2011
When the content becomes too large vertically, I expect the vertical scroll bar to appear and the table to shrink horizontally slightly to accommodate the scroll bar. However in IE7 what happens is the horizontal scroll bar also appears, despite there still being enough space horizontally for all the content in the div.
This is IE specific - firefox works perfectly.
Full source below. Any help greatly appreciated.

        <p>This will be fine until such time as the vertical size forces a
           vertical scroll bar. At this point I'd expect the table to re-size
           to now take into account of the new vertical scroll bar. Instead,
           IE7 keeps the table the full size and introduces a horizontal
           scroll bar.

        <p>Resize the browser window vertically so this content doesn't
