Will not display forums on this Web Page correctly. It is blank/white space for
about 60 lines, then the real content displays below.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to www.astralpulse.com
2. Select Forums
3. See misdisplayed web page with extra page of white space at top 

Actual Results:  
Extraneous white space, empty lines, at top of page, have to scroll down almost
an entire page for actual content

Expected Results:  
Not adding the extra white space at the top

IE 6.0 and Netscape 7.1 do display it correctly.

I feel that this bug has something to do with implementation of addMainItem() in
some of given page's JavaScripts, but I cannot figure where exactly that
function is defined.

DOMi is reporting the errant space to have a TABLE set to height="100%".  It's
not in the source like that, so the Javascript is writing in that way.  The page
is a mess anyway, should be Tech Evang.

Disabling the Javascript shows the page in a correct way, also when enabled i
get tons of javascript error

event is not defined etc (IE specific event.toElement)

--> Tech Evangelism
