xhtml question.

hi all,
suppose i have the following XHTML doc.

<!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" lang="en" xml:lang="en">
<head>
<title>Welcome</title>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
</head>

<body>
<table align="center" width="100%" height="100%">
<tr>
<td valign="middle" align="center">
hello
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

If the "DOCTYPE" tag is *not* present, the word "hello" will be in the
middle of the page
(because of the "height" attribute in the "table" element)

But in XHTML, the "table" element does not allow "height" attribute, what
should i do in order to display the
word "hello" in the middle of the page? I need a method that is compatible
with transitional XHTML and
also compatible with previous HTML versions.
