Hopefully someone will be able to help me...

I am a novice when it comes to coding. Basically I teach myself using the info I grab off the web and then guessing and checking...

I am working with WordPress and trying to tweak a theme. It displays properly in IE, but not so much in FireFox. If you can check out my site at SEOdisco.com, you will see the minor differences:

-right body margin
-margin between entry and sidebar

I would like these things fixed so that FireFox displays how the site currently appears in IE. Any help would be much appreciated!

Web pages always look different to different users. CSS suggests, it does not dictate. So whikle you may be able with effort to tweak the code so that a page appears the same on your PC, it will still appear different to your readers. So why bother? Certainly be aware of discrepancies in CSS interpretation between browsers, but my advice is not to get too stressed about it.

Your page actually displays correctly in Firefox. The only way to make it look the same in both would be to use an IE hack.
