Table appearing different in Firefox.

Hi,

The webpage im working on is www.uofpd.co.uk/roster.php

Basically I have a table contained in there which is outputting fine in Internet Explorer but when you view it in Firefox it appears a lot bigger which ends up pushing it off the page.

I haven't named the size of anything on the table or the cells or the rows or anything, would that be the problem?

I have validated both the html and the css used on this page so that didn't give me any answers to the problem!

All <p> have a top/bottom margin and Firefox is following the standard. IE is not and collapsing the margins. If you don't want the margins then you'll have to set them to zero.

The margins should only collapse when one p is follows by another.

Thanks alot. I've adjusted the P settings in those Div's in the CSS.

#maincontentroster p {
font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size:.9em;
margin: 0;
}

Is the example of how I fixed it...

Thanks for your help
