a CSS file...having problems Options

[crazy_goat_black...]

i'm kind of new to CSS...so...yeah. and i'm having issues with my new template i'm making for the CSS reboot. the thing is, it looks absolutely perfect in internet explorer, but when i view it in firefox everything is screwed up! which obviously means there's something wrong with my code. anyone know what? i put it through the w3 validator but the report it gave me made no sense...

here it is:

CODE

<style type="text/css">

body
 {
 background:black;
 scrollbar-arrow-color:black;
 scrollbar-track-color:black;
 scrollbar-shadow-color:gray;
 scrollbar-face-color:orange;
 scrollbar-darkshadow-color:darkgray;
 scrollbar-highlight-color:lightgray;
 scrollbar-3dlight-color:orange;
font:12px Tw Cen MT white;
 }

a:link
 {
 font-color:blue;
 font:12px Tw Cen MT blue;
 font-size:12px;
 text-decoration:none;
 }

a:visited
{
font-color:blue;
font:12px Tw Cen MT blue;
font-size:12px;
text-decoration:none;
}

a:hover
{
font-color:mediumblue;
font:14px Tw Cen MT mediumblue;
font-size:15px;
text-decoration:italic;
cursor:crosshair;
background-color:black;
border:1px dashed orange;
}

#title

font-color:white;
font:12px Tw Cen MT orange;
font-size:12px;
text-decoration:none;
background-color:#333333;
border:2px dashed orange;
}

#navigate
{
height:50px;
width:550px;
background-color:#000000;
}

#entry
{
align:center;
height:350px;
width:550px;
background-color:#222222;
border:2px dashed orange;
text-decoration:none;
}

#footer
{
align:center;
height:100px
width:550px;

}
</style>

Help?

[crazy_goat_black...]

/me feels incredibly stupid now

oops. i also took out a few extra <br> tags and now everything's all good and fine. i fixed the font and text, too. the only problem is in firefox not all my links are the color i told them to be

okay, i take that back, i'm still ahving a few issues. what seems to be the problem is the text i have set in certain div's (?) aren't...staying there. lookit: http://crazygoat.diary-x.com/journal.cgi?t...inz&entry=lorem in IE it works fine, but in firefox the entry box doesn't expand to hold all the text. how do i fix this? and...am i making sense?
