    I built a site for a client and it looks great in IE.

    The CSS does not work in Firefox.
    Please have a look in both.

    You should learn to code cross browser :) Feel free to share the CSS file so we can help you.

    edit: How did you coded that?

    Oh it should be src="styles.css" not href="styles.css" and you dont need ID elements in there. Why have you attached so many CSS files?

    Personally I use: <style type="text/css" media="screen">@import "css/styles.css";</style>

    The site is built on a template. The CSS files came with the template.

    I sent you an IM

    developing for firefox is a lot easier than IE, so if your site looks good in IE, then you're almost there. Firefox uses a better rendering engine, so they excuse a lot of the mistakes you typically make in IE.

    Your css link should be 'href=' not 'src='.

    Here http://www.w3schools.com/TAGS/tag_link.asp you can see how link to css stylesheet should look like. There is no "src" attribute in <link> tag. As drhowarddrfine advises you should use href.
