Okay,

So I was just doing a test of concept last night, and I wanted to try out the background-position: bottom right tag of css. I used five paragraphs of lipsum in side a three column table, the two exterior columns empty, as per usual for most of my site designs.

I set up a class in an external css with the back ground position, and set the td with the text to that class. worked as expected in IE, but not in FF. I checked with quirksmode.org, and according to that reference, it should have worked.

I then tried switching to standards mode. that didn't help either. I then tried switching to just a div layer. that didn't work either. I've checked my css, it's written correctly. There's litterally nothing else to this page. Anyone else seen this?

P.S. I reinstalled Firefox thinking there might be an error with my browser. no dice.
PSS. Couldn't deside if this belonged here or in browswers. My apologies if I chose poorly.

It is almost certainly an error in the code. Post the relevant html and css here for us to see.

If I had to guess, I'd say a semi-colon got left off the CSS rule just before the background rule. That will cause Firefox to miss whatever follows. But, like cEM says, posting the relevant code will help a lot in troubleshooting.
