Tables Height!

Can someone explain wot the "min-height" property does.

Is it this I need to use to keep a table height the same as the content on a page??....to stretch down the page

A table and its celsl will always be the same height as your content if you
don't declare any dimensions. They will be as wide and as high as the
content you place within it. You can override the width or a cell for
example by using a stylesheet or by inserting a transparent shim inside the
cell to prop it open.

Here is some info on min-height
