How versatile are layer comps?

Looks like Allison points out a pretty good solution for the different views of her website using layer comps, and using the toggle visibility option, but it seems like this would totally break in any page that was longer in vertical dimensions.

Anyone have an alternative solution, or found a fix using layer comps for this use case?

Hi James, I use layer comps fairly often at work, but more for one page view at a time (for example an index page) as I often have revisions. I have run across revisions forcing a change in page length, when that happens I usually expand the page to fit the longest version and just make sure there is something that denotes a footer in the other versions. This works fine for wire framing, however would look messy if you were to do something like present to a client.

Sweet, thanks for the response sarahbruchman.
