Force bottom border to bottom?

I haven't used Frontpage in a while, but I'm having to do so now for a
client. I'm also beta-testing FP2003 but I assume my issue is pretty broad.

How can I force the bottom border to actually stay at the bottom of the
page? In other words, no matter how tall the web page is, I want the bottom
border to stick to the bottom of the window. If the page is stretched, I
want space to appear above the bottom border, not below it. Currently, new
space is added below it and it looks awkward.

Not possible directly within FP, requires JavaScript to float the content,
and can not be applied to a bottom shared border.

There is one way to do this, but it's an imperfect cheat.
Basically, for your 'short' pages, you could put your
content into a table with a fixed height of a few hundred
pixels (using trial and error to get the height you
prefer). The bottom border would then always render below
the table.

It would also work for all your pages, since the table
height will stretch down to fit the content; so you could
do so in a template if you're using one.
