Theoretically this is the way to do it. If your user agent doesn't leave a
blank, that's the UA's problem. If you're interested in presentation, then
do you want to use Stylesheets? (I assume you do because you're posting to
www-style). All you have to do is give the middle cell a definite width and
height, or a relative one. And it will resize correctly.
