FireFox problem.
If I view my site on FireFox it looks horrible but if I use internet explorer it looks fine. What can I do to fix it?

Firstly... It's probably not a problem with Firefox.
Firefox renders pages correctly, It's IE that makes the foul ups. What you've done is create a site that compensates for the problems in IE and as such screwed up.
The problem appears to be related to the differences in the way the two browsers render the box model. Search for Box Model hack on Google for more info.

I think it was someone on this very board who advised: Write your pages for FF, tweak them for IE. Very good advise. Live by it
Have you run your pages through a validator? Or use an editor (like HTMLkit) that has w3 validation built in.

Its CSS right?:
<style type="text/css">
<!--
a {
color:#000;
}
a:hover {
color:#f00;
}
-->
</style>
It goes in the section.

I don't think he means how to get link hovers. I believe that sometimes, when there is invalid code, whole blocks of text near links inherit hover behaviour which is supposed to apply only to the link. I'm not certain of this -- it might help to see some code first.

don't forget a generic font-family -- serif or non-serif usually.
