I checked and I could not replicate your problem. When I used mozilla
firefox v1.0.2 the site looks normal. Very slow to finish loading, with
the center content not appearing until the end. My guess would be, it
didn't try to render the section until it knew the dimensions of the
content. To see what I saw...

I did experience another problem however. My default browser, konqueror
totally screwed up the page. With the exception that the majority of your
hopeful customers won't be using konqueror, it would in my mind be a
critical issue. I can't say that I have ever seen such a garbled mess, so
the easiest way to tell you about it is to show you. p1 is the top third
of the page, p2 is the bottom third.

Good luck in working this out.
