Change of <td> height causes hiding of other elements on the page.

Question

Hi,

I’m working on my web site. Sometimes I need to change height of table cell in order to fit content in it. I’m doing it with java script as follows:

contentCell  = document.getElementById(contentId);
contentCell.style.height = "180";

The problem is in IE8. When I increase height, the table hides other elements below that is really ugly. Then, when I click somewhere in the IE window, other elements are moved down and it’s became normal. In Firefox resize work good. Can somebody please help me with this?
