    You will never get IE to attempt to perform like other more modern browsers without a proper doctype. Add this to your first line:

    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">

    This has not made any difference.

    as drhowarddrfine said you need to give a proper doctype to your html first. And then it'll be more easier to find bugs on your page.

    You don't even have necessary tags in your page, no <html>, no <head>, no <body>, that's as crazy as you go to street naked.

    Go w3schools.com to find some information about basic page structure.

    The HTML, HEAD, and BODY tags are optional. It is a poor practice, and may lead to browser error to leave them out, but it is completely valid.

    @ the OP: It would be a good idea to include those tags.

    In general, IE and Firefox render very similarly. There are obvious differences, but IE looks better at one thing, Firefox at another. Please specify the differences you're interested in. Also, please edit your css for human readability. Your formatting is terrible. You may view the stylesheets on my site (see sig) for one commonly accepted format. (Important: The indents are spaces, not tabs.)

    cheers,

    gary
