is there some way to get a table to stretch vertically to the maximum height
(to fill the screen). i know that we're not supposed to set the table
height to 100%, so is there some other way to do this? can it be done with
CSS?

You could use CSS.

<style type="text/css">
html,body,#talltable{height:100%}
</style>

Then assign the ID talltable to your table:

<table id="talltable">

Seems to work in modern browsers.
