Is there any way to make the height of a textarea relative (e.g., 90%) instead of a fixed number of rows or a fixed number of pixels (either in html or css), so that it completely fills the height of the window or table cell it's in?

You can see an example of a text-area with relative height in Gmail (compose message)...
There has to be a solution!

no, you can't. According to the HTML standard, the rows value is a required field and must be a number.
The text area Gmail uses is actually generated by Javascript. It is an Ajax app (thus the other tricks it includes like adding bold, fonts, etc.)

Have you tried using percentages? If I were you, I'd try percentages for cols, rows, height and width, one of them oughta work, and if none do: Check www.w3schools.org
