I\'ve been away from marking up sites for some time. So, now we have HTML5 and a lot of new features in CSS. I have a common site layout with fixed size header and footer. And o

    Well, first of all in 2011 we dont use tables for layout anymore!

    If I were you, I would write the markup like so:

    <body>
       <div id="main" role="main">
            <header>
                contains logo, nav and has fixed height
            </header>
            <div class="content"> /*use <article> or <section> if it is appropriate - if not sure what to use, use a div*/
                actual content
            </div>
            <footer>
                fixed size footer
            </footer>
        </div>
    </body>
    

    And the CSS would be the same except the changed selectors

    html, body { height:100% }
    #main { height:100% }
    footer { height:123px }
    

    For a fixed footer, I would suggest to use position:absolute or maybe position:fixed - it depends how you want it to behave (scroll with page or always stay at bottom).

    To make a "sticky" footer, that will be at the bottom of the page but move with the content, this method will do the trick.

    Let me add my contribution by adding 3 columns to your header / main / footer layout:

    http://jsfiddle.net/ESrG9/

    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <table>
        <thead>
            <tr id="header">
                <th colspan="3">head</th>
            </tr>
        </thead>
        <tbody>
            <tr>
                <td id="left">main</td>
                <td id="main">main</td>
                <td id="right">main</td>
            </tr>
        </tbody>
        <tfoot>
            <tr>
                <td id="footer" colspan="3">foot</td>
            </tr>
        </tfoot>
    </table>

    So far nobody mentioned the flex-box method

    https://jsfiddle.net/55r7n9or/

    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
    <head>
    <style>
    
    html, body, div {
                height:         100%;
                margin:         0;
                padding:        0 }
    
    div {       display:        flex;
                flex-direction: column }
    
    main {      flex:           1 }
    
    header {    background:     red }
    main {      background:     pink }
    footer {    background:     purple }
    
    </style>
    </head>
    <body>
    <div>
      <header>hdr</header>
      <main>main</main>
      <footer>foot</footer>
    </div>
    </body>
    </html>

    Today, you would do like this (not much different really)

    http://jsfiddle.net/5YHX7/3/

    html, body { height: 100%; width: 100%; margin: 0; }
    div { height: 100%; width: 100%; background: #F52887; }
    

    and

    <html><body><div></div></body></html>

    As asking for "modern" AND "compatible" is a contraction anyway, the grid method wasn't mentioned so far, and maybe is too modern right now, but with some adaptions might be a solution.

    This article (and pointers) -with more complex use- is great to read: https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2017/01/css-grid

    Now the code looks nice, however browsers don't... - so I added some forcing.

    https://jsfiddle.net/qLcjg6L6/1/

    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
    <head>
    <style>
    
    html, body {
                height:             100%;
                min-height:         100vh;
                margin:             0;
                padding:            0 }
    
    body {      display:            grid;
                grid-template-rows: minmax(auto, min-content) auto minmax(auto, min-content);
                grid-template-columns: 100% }
    
    header {    background:         red }
    main {      background:         pink }
    footer {    background:         purple }
    
    /* as this code is yet far from well-supported, here's a brute force... */
    header {    height:             70px }
    footer {    height:             60px }
    main {      height:             calc(100vh - 130px); }
    /* 130px being the sum of header/footer - adapt to your desired size/unit */
    
    </style>
    </head>
    <body>
    <header>hdr</header>
    <main>main</main>
    <footer>foot</footer>
    </body>
    </html>

    As you asked for "modern"... anno 2016 I have maybe a better answer than in 2013:

    use the 100vh solution in CSS3. vh is a new unit and stands for ViewPort height.

    html, body {            height:                 100% } 
    header {                height:                 100px }
    footer {                height:                 50px }
    main {                  height:                 calc(100vh - 150px); }
    
    html, body {            width:                  100% }  
    header, main, footer {  width:                  1000px }
    
    html, body {            margin:                 0 }
    header, main, footer {  margin:                 0 auto }
    
    html, body {            padding:                0 }
    
    html, body {            text-align:             center }
    
    body {                  background-color:       white } 
    header {                background-color:       yellow }
    main {                  background-color:       orange }
    footer {                background-color:       red }
    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <meta charset="utf-8" />
    <title>test</title>
    <header>bla</header>
    <main>bla</main>
    <footer>bla</footer>

    But if you wish to be compatible with old browsers, use the code in my 2013 answer.
