    Hello
    I have this website

    www.learn-kenpo.com

    It shows fine in Internet Explorer and in Firefox it shows a big empty white space between the header and the first text. I am at loss.

    Anybody got a quick fix for this?

    I don't see the big empty space but you will never get IE to attempt to perform like other more modern browsers, such as Firefox, without a proper doctype. Put this on your first line:
    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">

    Then always test your markup in Firefox, or some other modern browser, before looking to see if/when IE screws things up.
