I am using frontpage 2003 and for some reason the site looks good and exactly
the same in IE7 as it does in frontpage, however when i go to Mozilla firefox
the layers are streched and my site is somewhat deformed, could anyone help
with that please. The site is www.odanahwoodworking.com

1) Assign a valid doctype to your page
2) You are using absolute positioned divs which will behave differently depending on the browser and doctype

Open your Home page in Code view.
There are 3 doctypes defined there (before the <html> tag): delete the
first and third - the second is most suitable for that page.

Mozilla
