I'm trying to fix some of the margins on the tables but for some reason it shows up fine on Frontpage and Internet Explorer, but really screwed up on Firefox. Is there a program I can use that is compatible with both?

That is where you problem is coming from using any WYSIWYG editor you will come accross these problems.
There is nothing better than coding your pages yourself, even then unless you use the correct methods you will still have problems.
The reason it works ok in IE but not Firefox is IE is not standards compliant where as all other browsers are so they use diffrent rules for reading the coding of your pages.
You should make your site look as you want using a standards compliant browser like Firefox then check it in IE as there are hacks to fix any diffrences if you do it this way.
Here take a look at how many validation errors you index page has.

All those attributes in your body tag (bgcolor, text, link, etc) should be taken care of by CSS. Its nonstandard how you're doing it.
