Why website published via Publisher 2002 not Firefox Compatible?

I designed my website through Microsoft Publisher 2002. It is an amazing
application. But now when I have published my website on the web, I find that
my website looks awful in Firefox or Netscape. Its "What You See Is What You
Get" for an the Explorer. Can someone help me with this issue.

By design Publisher exploits the technologies of the IE browser. Support in
non IE browsers is questionable. The degree of such support depends on the
version of Publisher (including service packs) and the very design of the web
itself. So it might be achieved thru trial and error and lots of testing.
Which is what all professional web site developers have to do. Browser
compatiblity is a huge issue (google on the topic) not specific to Publisher.
Publisher is not intended for professional site development with wide browser
support. If that is your intention I have 2 pieces of advise - one, don't
leave out Opera and Apple's Safari, two - don't use Publisher.
