Firefox/IE layout problem
http://home.woh.rr.com/drimages/temp/index.html
1) In Firefox the bottom element (#Footer, "blogger / blogback / css ...") isn't aligned properly, but it is in IE. I've played around w/ positioning but can't get it to go where I want it (underneath everything, like IE has it).
2) In IE there is a 5px tall area underneath #Header (the banner image), but it doesn't show up in Firefox. I've set the margin all of the surrounding elements to 0px all around to try to remove it, but it's still there.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance

Add
background-color: #083961;
to #Header ? (assuming that matches the color of the header image)

Well, I made a better image for the header, so the workaround for #2 doesn't work anymore. Anyone know an actual fix? IE6 is adding an extra 5px inside the div, below the image, but setting padding to 0 doesn't fix it. I could set the image as the background to the div, but then I wouldn't be able to make it a link, would I?

A shot in the dark: Remove the #Header border (not needed as I see it), remove the #Content top-border and then change the #Header background-color to white.
To re-write an old quote:

Thanks for the suggestion, but I'd like to keep the borders. I think they make everything look more clean. If I set the image to be the background image, is there any way to make the entire div a link?

Remove the text from the background and make the text your link
