Unfortunately the joke's ironic as FF has its own share of problems in

Seems correct to me under opera or firefox.  But I guess if there is an  
omitted portion, I wouldn't know :)

A more serious issue is that the speakers page is chopped in 
Firefox:
http://dconf.org/speakers/index.html
It lists only until Dmitry Olshansky.
No wonder, as it has a fixed size in pixels.

I did a refresh, and it works now.
Cache, I guess.
Sorry for the false alert.

The problem is not with the cache. If you press Ctrl+F5 the page is cut 
short again.
I think the height of the page is determined after a short time, but 
depending on the speed of the download, the pictures might not yet be 
loaded completely, so the layout figures out a height that is too small 
when all pictures are loaded.
It might have to do with some broken html that the source viewer shows 
inside FF, the first is "<span class="sp">Sponsors</sp>"

The problem is subtle, a javascript is bugguy and set a wrong 
height. I already reported that one a while ago xD

There's something weird going on here. All browsers on Mac OS X has this 
problem (FF, Safari and Chrome). It only happens when I do a "hard" 
reload, that is, don't use anything from the local cache. The following 
things happens when I do a hard reload:
* The HTML classes "page_left", "divider_v" and "page_right" has the CSS 
style property "height" set to "637px"
* I get the following JavaScript error:
"NetworkError: 503 Service Unavailable - 
http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=%23dconf%20OR%20from%3AD_programming%20OR%20%40D_programming&include_rts=true&callback=TWTR.Widget.receiveCallback_1&rpp=20&clientsource=TWITTERINC_WIDGET&result_type=mixed&1366729612406=
(That is not the full URL)
* JavaScript error: "TypeError: that.decay is not a function". Most 
likely due to the error above
If I then do a normal reload I don't get any JavaScript errors and the 
HTML classes above have their height set to "703px".
This is easy to see in any web browser using its built in developer 
tools. Just right click anywhere on the page and choose "Inspect 
element". Then choose the "Console" tab.

The <div class="page_right equal"> element has a hard-coded 
height (643px). Removing that inline styling it works for me.

Thanks, confirmed (comes to 641px in my browser). Problem is that 
constraint seems to be generated dynamically.

This looks like a JS hack for the multi-column CSS problem 
(trying to have multiple columns, and having each column have the 
height of the tallest one).
CSS3 has columns. Current browser support: 
http://caniuse.com/#feat=multicolumn
However, in this case, this seems unnecessary, as the left part 
of the page will rarely be taller than the right part, and even 
in that case, the layout looks acceptable. Thus, it's possible to 
simply set the vertical separator as a non-repeating background 
on the left side of the right-hand column.
I was going to send a pull request to 
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dconf.org , but that 
repository is out of date. Here's some "patches" and a patched up 
page to test: http://thecybershadow.net/d/dconf-org-layout/
(Alternatively, just use a table.)

I consider HTML-tables-for-layout one of my not-so-secret weapons. It's
immensely useful, simple, powerful and easy, they work right on
freaking everything, and ever since PalmOS browsers disappeared (ie no
nested tables) it has no real downsides aside from some goofy hand-wavy
ideology. I love HTML layout tables :)

Or one can just use Bootstrap and all this is already done for you.

And no, you don't have to use the JavaScript stuff.

Yah, we're in the private repo, we should switch back to the public one. 
I made a bunch of changes based on your patch, still no cigar. On my

The vertical bar is gone (because my browser saved the image file 
to a relative location different from the server one). Change 
url('dotted_v.png') to url('../images/dotted_v.png') to fix it.
