    I viewed your site using IE and it works better there.

    You designed your site for IE, you need to redesign it so it works in any platform or browser

      Firefox bites! Always has, always will, since Mozilla browsers are based on the failed and statically archaic Netscape coding platform which will never keep up with the HTML evolution (which is why it is typically the browser that renders distorted page displays). Firefox is only so popular because it was one of the first few browsers that were offered "FREE" (c. 1995), and everybody simply acts like sheep and continues to follow the crowd ignorantly. As we all know, even bad habits are quite hard to break. Even Slimbrowser is lightyears ahead of Firefox!

      Site looks and functions fine in IE, Opera, and Chrome, although the site seems rather wider than could be, especially if hoping to be both "device-friendly" and tighter on balance and precise positioning to project a smooth look-and-feel. As mentioned, you need to clean up the proper space positioning of your text and elements so they don't overlap or remain covered (which shows in all browsers, not just Firefox), but that is simple compared to re-defining your page width to a much narrower format to truly be balanced and "flowing" overall. In today's world especially, being "device-friendly" should be a major concern for this type of site, and the flow and function is all-important to remain truly relevant and convertible.

      Although the suggestion to use multiple browsers to 'proof' your site is sound indeed, I suggest that even though you include Firefox in that group used to balance your page design as you compromise to an acceptable "proof," you place greater conceptual import on those browsers that are definitively the leaders of the pack racing into the new realm: Chrome (especially with how all Google functions are integrated), IE, Opera, Slimbrowser, Firefox - in that order of importance and preference - despite the reckoning you must contend with due to Firefox popularity and widespread usage influencing design.

      Welcome to the finesse of web design.
