My page is at http://www.improveyourwebvisibility.com/Law/index2.html. I need to make some changes to it, but I can't make it appear the same in FF as it does in IE. In IE, it appears fine so far. But in FF it looks completely different. I can't figure out what I did. Any one who can help I greatly appreciate it! Thank you.

not a firefox issue..... try validating your code.
first step is to close the "containerPage" div and "columnMain" div.

also verify that you want the doctype to be
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">????

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> would be more appropriate

and you might want to replace your copyright symbol with "&copy;"

then validate your css.... 7 real errors, 2 instances of CSS3 that may not be supported in some browsers, and more color conflict warnings than you want to count.

VALIDATE FIRST!!!

**you had the same kind of problems in your 04-12-2007 post for "Firefox Issues"

I guess what I meant was that it was appearing correctly in IE but not in FF. I'm a newbie here please! I'll do what you recommended.

ALWAYS validate your code first.
html, xml and css are languages - spelling and "grammar" (syntax,order,punctuation) are important. if you don't have a validation program installed on your machine, use online validation such as those provided by W3C.
