It's funny how people point the finger at Firefox when 99% of the time
IE is at fault. :)

What do you mean by "same?" Are you talking pixel perfection here, or
is there a more serious display problem?

Any chance of a look at your problem?

this is what many people go wrong. Then use DIVs to group content
together for display purposes, and finally SPANs to style particular
things.
