    What you need is a better css layout,

    You can get one here for free that is cross browser supported.

    http://www.code-sucks.com/

    Even if you don't want to use these layouts you can get an idea of how to set up your style sheet to make it work in different browsers.

    Also if you develop you web pages to XHTML STRICT it seems to help.

    If you ever want to validate your web page go here:

    http://validator.w3.org/

    Put your url in the box and hit validate,
    This site will tell you what errors you need to fix to be XHTML compliant.

    Being compliant is a good thing, Google XHTML STRICT compliant and you will see why.

    Good luck!:)
