    Can someone let me know why my site looks different in explorer than in Mozilla. I'm using visual studio.net Pro 2003 to develop the site, but I can't figure out what is making it look so different. The URL is....http://greatermtoliveocog.com. IF you pull it up in explorer and then pull it up in mozilla you will see what I mean.

    The way a browser renders the HTML given to it might be different than how other browsers render it, specially when you are using browser specific HTML in your code, style sheets etc. To make your application look the same in different browsersm try to stick to W3C specifications as much as you can.

    So basically, all this guy did was use an external style sheet to fix the problem?

    No, he followed standards when creating the page.  You might need to take an XHTML/CSS course or something.
