    It looks like you fixed the problem, from what I can see. For the future in your CSS file add margin:0px; and padding:0px; to your body tag. Both firefox and ie come with different presets.

    Also, I had problems in the past when adding paragraph tags and span tags that were throwing my site off. IE and Firefox have different defaults so on the css so if the site is pixels off, just look back at the css and set the margin:0px; and padding:0px to other elements, not just the body.

    Pixels are pixels... in any browser.

    Also, the layout appears fine in IE and FF to me. The fonts are another matter, but the layout appears correct.

    take a look as the top right image in both FF and ie aswell as the link selection bar on the left.

    As you can see in IE it is about 10 px to high and in FF it is totaly perfect

    Your using an h1 tag. You need to change the settings for an h1 tag in your css. Change the padding and margin, that should work.
