Hmmm...

I seemed to have figured it out. So if you visited and saw the pages match,
that's why.

Turns out Mozilla doens't like:
<table width="800" height="600" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0"
cellspacing="0" class="contain">

I took out the align="center" and the class="contain" and the put a <div>
around the whole table to keep things in position.

Not exactly how I want it to look, but atleast it is consistent.
