Many times people have problems with Publisher built web pages because
Publisher chokes on trying to convert publications that use certain print
format and design approaches, to html. It also creates one set of code for
IE, and another set of code for FF and all other browsers. Sometimes it
succeeds for IE and fails for other browsers. The trick is to find design
techniques that work for both IE and FF...that are cross browser compatible.

I am guessing that you have the menu text box grouped with whatever you are
using for the left column background color. Ungroup and the links should
work in FF. Generally always ungroup after laying out your page.
Your overall background color appears to be some sort of two color gradient
that is "breaking" in FF. Try using a single color gradient or perhaps
non-gradient background. How are you creating the background color??? It may
be in the way you are doing it rather than the fill or the background color.
I notice that the length of the page exceeds the last element (the contact
postmaster button) by a significant amount. Publisher is design to truncate
the page immediately after the last element. Perhaps this is tied in with
how ever you are doing the background color...and why it is breaking in FF.
You might try a different approach.
I didn't have time to look at every page, but
http://www.morevolution.com/index_files/Page903.htm seems to suggest that
you are using a Master page as most of the elements do not load...menu,
banner...not much of anything. Don't use a Master Page in a Publisher web.
It is hard to troubleshoot this site as you are doing some "background"
things in your design that are not working in both IE and FF. You might want
to "deconstruct" all the background stuff you are doing. Strip the page to
the point that all the text boxes, links, inserted images...the basics
elements of your page are working correctly. Then add back in those
background colors and try the different design approaches one at a time,
Publish, and test the pages on your computer rather than upload them. That
way you will find what is choking Publisher when it produces code for FF.

Looks like the same problems....and thus the same solution(s). Don't use a
Master Page, ungroup design elements, do your background colors in a
different way, don't use "fancy" borders...or at least try a plain border...
I notice that the home page does truncate after the last design element as
it should. This reinforces that you need to redo the way you are doing the
background color in the first site.
--------------
As I have said, it is hard to help troubleshoot what you are doing because
in this case I suspect it is how you are doing fill colors and backgrounds,
but it is hard to figure that out from just looking at your pages. If you
can't figure it out, and want more help, then do a Save As and make a copy
of the Pub file that you use to produce your first site, then delete all the
pages except for the home page. Then go to
www.yousendit.com and upload that
Pub file, and send the link to yourself. You don't have to sign up to use
the service and it is free. When you get the link, post it here so we can
download your one page Pub file. What we would learn from how you are
building that one page will probably answer most of your questions.
Sorry I can't be of more help...
