Why is this working in IE and not firefox

    This is a big problem to me. This css seems OK, but does NOTHING in firefox.

    Also I do not understand why divison 6 is outside the wrapper. Also, is there a way to do away with the <div class="cl"></div>

    Please help.

    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
    <html>
    <head>

    .WRAPPER {
    width: 770px;
    border: 2px solid .000000;
    }
    .1 {
    margin: 2px;
    padding: 10px;
    float: left;
    width: 705px;
    border: thin dotted .000000;
    }
    .2 {
    margin: 2px;
    padding: 10px;
    float: left;
    width: 500px;
    border: thin dotted .000000;
    }
    .3 {
    margin: 2px;
    padding: 10px;
    float: left;
    width: 200px;
    border: thin dotted .000000;
    }
    .4 {
    margin: 2px;
    padding: 10px;
    float: left;
    width: 500px;
    border: thin dotted .000000;
    }

    .5 {
    margin: 2px;
    padding: 10px;
    float: left;
    width: 200px;
    border: thin dotted .000000;
    }
    .6 {
    margin: 2px;
    padding: 10px;
    float: left;
    width: 500px;
    border: thin dotted .000000;
    }
    .7 {
    margin: 2px;
    padding: 10px;
    float: left;
    width: 600px;
    border: thin dotted .000000;
    }
    .cl {
    clear: both;
    }

    -->
    </style>

    </head>

    <body>
    <div class="WRAPPER">

    <div class="1">1-as'lkjnasK;NFKJFDN</div>
    <div class="cl"></div>

    <div class="5">5as'lkjnasK;NFKJFDN</div>
    <div class="cl"></div>
    <div class="6">6as'lkjnasK;NFKJFDN</div>

    </div>

    Below <head> add:
    <style><!--
    Code (markup):
    So simple. Also your CSS is all screwy. I don't think that FF3 supports thin as a size for the browser. Try using 1px. Also, for your colors, use a # instead of a ".' - such as #000000

    Hello, larryweiss,

    I have modified your code and checked in FF3.0 it's working properly..... please use below code for that....one more thing never use only numeric name for style name and make practice to create external CSS.

    GOOD LUCK,....
