Without a link or the complete code we can only guess, but frequently any pages created using IE alone are apt to cause problems in modern browsers. Never use IE for initial testing of web pages due to its many quirks and bugs.

Hmmm
If it involves CSS then Firefox might get a bit annoying as it's a bit more sensitive with Style sheets. That's why I don't use it, but I make my pages compatable with FF 'cos other people use it. Anyway, try posting some code up and we'll try and help. :)

FF is not more sensitive. FF is more correct. IE is nine years behind web standards, riddled with incorrect behavior and odd quirks, which is why you should never use it as a reference browser. Markup written for IE is almost guaranteed not to work in any other modern browser while markup written using Firefox is almost guaranteed to work everywhere. The first mistake a new coder makes is using IE as their reference.

what i do to counter ie's "amazingness" is i write my css to work 100% with firefox, that way its right, then i use alittle javascript to change some of the styles so ie can handle it....or at least try to handle it.

just some help advice for cross-browser compatibility.


good luck
