Ok, my bad: I hadn't read the specs. However, I had set up the <body> 
size as absolute with top=0 and bottom=0.

well, I've tried setting up rules for all surrounding elements. My page 
layout actually is as follows (I'll reuse the one you gave me)

><html style="height:100%">
><head><TITLE>Test page</TITLE></head>
><body style="height: 100%">

<div style="position: absolute; top:50px; bottom:50px"> /* This allows 
me to have a simili-frame in my page, the div thus has a 
body.height-100px size */

><div style="min-height: 100%; border: 1px black solid">

Unfortunately, it still doesn't work in Konqueror (I have 3.4). My 
layout is actually based on DIVs using absolute coordinates relative to 
the body's borders (which is defined as top:0; left:0; width:100%; 
height:100%; margin:0; border:0; padding:0; making it take up the whole 
viewport, and nothing else). It looks like Gecko does calculate a 
containing block's height when this block is defined as such 
(absolute+top and bottom), but that other browsers don't (Konqueror 3.4 
doesn't reflow those elements when one resizes the window, while Opera 
and IE7 do - IE6 somewhat).
