It appears the Holly Hack might also work but would oyu believe the original article for this on PositionIsEverytyhing ( www.positioniseverything.net/articles/hollyhack.html )has now been moved to http://www.communitymx.com/abstract.cfm?cid=47F29 and requires payment?!

RE: [WSG] Disappearing conent in middle column
Hi Christian. Yes, I have.
The clearer class looks like this.
.clearer { clear:
both; line-height: 0; height: 0; margin: 0px;
padding: 0px; background:
transparent; }
For those not seeing the problem it is duplicated ONLY
under these circumstamces.
1. The centre colums content height is less than that
of the right column AND you click in the Address bar after page load and
hit RETURN.
2. On an subsequent visit using the browser's arrow
keys.

Are you applying "clear:both;" to these divs?

Add, at the very bottom of your stylesheet:
@media screen {
* html #middle {
height: 0;
}
}
...to stabilize it.
