Default Web Browser Differences

My site looks pretty good in IE but horrible in FF.
Does anyone know why there are diiferences and how to fix them?
I don't know what code to type differently, etc.

I experienced the same thing when I tried to make a website with php and css as the design. My buttons seem to be misplaced in FF.

Try working in Firefox first, this minimizes errors. I don't recommend using CSS and testing it in IE, because some selectors of CSS IE doesn't understand. I recommend using Firefox/Opera if your going to style CSS.

what softaware you using to create the webpage?
i think most likely is the use of CSS. make sure you using the stylesheet, and both browser support them well.

Try change to this code on your index.html file. Hope it will help.


Code:
<tr height="70" bgcolor="#009966"> <td colspan="4" class="Subtitle"><div align="center" class="style2">Toptenlisted.com</div> <p align="center" class="style1">The Best Source for Original Top Ten Lists</p></td> </tr>

Which is located just after this :

Code:
<table width="887" height="715" border="1" bordercolor="#FFFFFF" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">

By using the codes changes above, i saw similar or the same display on FF and IE.

All the best to your website and good luck.



PS : Maybe i am a bit oldish. I am still using Notepad for editing html codes.



Regards,
David Cheong.
