Layout and CSS problems with Firefox

Hi all,

I have a problem with Firefox, yes I know, the problem is really with IE as Firefox is just being compliant, however the site was developed in IE under VS2008 so I need to go back and make everything line up. Please find attached some images and code, as you can see, where IE displays everything just fine, FF is dropping some styles and alignments.

Can you see in my code why things are not being picked up?

Thanks

Solved it with a:

.clear
{
      clear:both;
}

<br /> class at the bottom of the form wrapper. Some points coming your way anyway.

Just re-read, that's exactly what you put! Points are yours!

excellent - amazing how many questions here relate to floats, when things look wonkey and floats are involved it's always my first point of call.

Good luck!

Just dawned on me, your projects for JCB - I have a friend whose helping out at JCB in the west midlands, is this who you work for or is this a private project?

ah ok - well JCB are currently sponsoring NSPCC and my friends working with them (for NSPCC) to achieve their charity goals.

I'm developing a flash based golf game for them at the mo, apparently you guys are having a Celebrity Golf Match to raise cash...
