multi-column javascript issue

I was trying out Cédric Savarese’s script for multi-column layouts (using the poorly supported CSS3 rules), when i ran into a problem…

It seemed to leave a big gap under the columns. Now i don’t know much about javascript, but i decided to have a look around the file anyway. After a lot of trial and error, i found that removing this line
