Design issues with this template

    I've always kinda avoided css, untill now. I kinda wanted to create a template without using one table. I wanted to create a look like this ->
    gamingdl.com/./includes/uploads/Skynt/template.gif

    So heres the trouble, the template turns out fine in IE (Which is what I used during the development to preview), but FF makes it looked all screwed up.
    I know theres something technically wrong with how I did it, so please help.

    css file:
    
    body {
    background-color: #ddd;
    }
    
    div#topbar {
    	width: 767px;
    	height: 12px;
    	background-image:url(images/template_01.gif);
    	background-position: bottom;
    	background-repeat: no-repeat;
    	margin: 0;
    	padding: 0;
    }
    
    div#container {
    	margin: 0;
    	width: 766px;
    	background-color:#fff;
    	padding: 0px 19px 10px 15px;
    	background-image: url(images/borders.gif);
    	background-repeat: repeat-y;
    	height: auto;
    }
    
    div#leftcontainer {
    	float: left;
    	width: 490px;
    	background-color: #fff;
    	margin: 0; border: 0; padding: 0;
    }
    
    div#logo {
    	float: left;
    	width: 490px;
    	background-color:#fff;
    	height: 80px;
    	padding-top: 20px;
    	padding-bottom: 5px;
    	margin: 0; border: 0;
    }
    
    
    div#news {
       float: left;
       width: 200px;
       background-color:#fff;
       height: 200px;
       margin:0; border: 0; padding: 0;
       background-image: url(images/bricks.gif);
       background-position: right;
       background-color: #fff;
       background-repeat: no-repeat;
    }
       
    
    div#footer {
    	width: 730px;
    	height: 10px;
    	background-color:#FFFFFF;
    	margin: 0;
    	padding: 0;
    	
    }
    div#bottom{
    	width: 767px;
    	height: 10px;
    	background-image: url(images/template_02.gif);
    	background-position: top;
    	background-repeat: no-repeat;
    	margin: 0;
    	padding: 0;
    }
    
    div#box1{
        height: 100px;
    	width: 15px;
    	float: left;
    	background-color: #666;
    	margin: 0; border: 0; padding: 0;
    }
    
    div#box2{
        height: 100px;
    	width: 15px;
    	float: right;
    	background-color: #666;
    	margin: 0; border: 0; padding: 0;
    }
    
    
    div#content { 
    font: 1em "Times New Roman", Times, serif; 
    }

    kind of hard to tell since I don't really know what you want (I also don't have any of the images you use) but try changing the style of the footer div to this:
    
    
    div#footer {
    	width: 730px;
    	height: 10px;
    	background-color:#FFFFFF;
    	margin: 0;
    	padding: 0;
    	clear: both;
    }

    I posted a link to the look I want ( I hope I dont get introuble considering it wanted to block live links), but that almost fixed it, except box 2 exceeds the boundries and sticking out.
