    Hi, I created this website for my dad www.prof-abbasi.com sometime back. It shows up perfectly fine in IE7. Recently, I downloaded FireFox and opened the website using it. The tabs get expanded like as if the "height" has been set to 100% although they have been set to "50". I don't understand why this is happening. I checked the codes... all seems fine. Please can you take a look and tell me which part is wrong? Thanks. Tara

      Basically, IE and Firefox render things differently, you need to test with both, and you need to be proactively writing code that both can render as you wish. There's lots of websites listing the things that they render differently, and workarounds.

        Thank you. I did a Google on the problem and found that setting the table layout to "fixed" solves the problem.
