Well, yeah I know that, but how do you change make html so that it shows up the same, or at least not messed up in one, in both browsers?

Because mozilla has different alignment junk and stuff. Everything from IE will be viewed different in Mozilla. My choice is to make a skin for mozilla, make it on mozilla, and tell the people it's only FOR mozilla. I dont think you should becuse, I guess, most people use IE because of div. ermm.gif not sure, though.

Make a layout that doesn't use Div codes. That'll improve your chances of having the layout align correctly in both browsers.

its because you cant code for sh*t. that's why. IE is more lenient with coding... but it doesnt comply with W3C standards. IE tends to make up codes that dont really exist. if you make a mistake in your coding...sometimes IE accepts it anyway. Mozilla on the other hand depends completely on w3c standards. if u coded badly, itll look effed up on mozilla. most xangas look retarded on mozilla simply because u have to tweak it so much.

I know that some sites show up the same in both browsers... Ok, so if I go back, fix all my codes, then it'll show up right on mozilla? Or will divs still look messed up.

Well, some people use Mozilla, so I dont' want it to look messed up when they go to the site. Is there something I can do to fix it?
