Hi,
Ha, World's Highest Website! :-)
That's the punishment for my blind copy/paste automatism! ;-)
(Reason will be the combination of the "One True Layout" styles with the 
"StretchToBottom" styles and/or "FooterAltStick" styles.)
Here my experiences (after emptying all my caches...), a bit 
contradictory...:

    * http://beta.erikvisser.net/24-10/index.shtml
      the original testpage;
      viewed in FF1.07 and Opera8.01 on Win98SE: also the long page
      syndrome.
      but viewed in IE6 on Win98SE: no long page syndrome!

    * 
http://home.tiscali.nl/developerscorner/css-discuss/test-erikvisserbeta.html
      my suggestions testpage; just the same results.

So I made an update to repair FF1.07 (adding things to maintain IE6) [1]:

    * 
http://home.tiscali.nl/developerscorner/css-discuss/test-erikvisserbeta-vs2-a.html
      with right column longest.

    * 
http://home.tiscali.nl/developerscorner/css-discuss/test-erikvisserbeta-vs2-b.html
      with middle column longest.

Both working on Win98SE (FF and IE6).
If it's alright for XP and IE7 too, then only a workaround for ... 
(Opera anyway; Mac? Others ..?.) has to be found, for Opera is still 
descending to the Hades. ;-)
(or maybe there is a simple "aha" general solution which is working fine 
for all together...)

Greetings,
francky
