Position the "faux columns" from the bottom, upwards, and make them
taller, and they will cover more browsers flawlessly.

The browsers you have listed can handle overflow on both a positioned
element (like you use) and a stretched float (which I prefer). Older
versions (Opera 8 and others) have a "weakness" in that they may hide
the overflow below, but still stretch body to enclose it - giving you a
scroll-bar.

I did test a similar solution more than a year ago, but existing
browser-version were not cooperating when it came to a real layout back
then, so I broke it down and left it to rot. All that's left working is
this test-page...

...which just shows that it'll work quite well when reversed.


As mentioned: I prefer the 'equal height column' solution used here...

...mainly because no extra markup is needed. Older browser-versions do
need some help with that one also.
