Debbie-

The idea is to code to standards, not to any browser. It just so happens
that Firefox, in my opinion at least, does the best job rendering css to the
W3C standards.

By building and testing your code in Firefox first, you can reasonably
ensure you're coding to standards. As Zoe suggested, constantly checking in
other browsers during the development process is recommended as well. Minor
inconsistencies between the browsers are to be expected, and its your choice
whether those are acceptable or need to be fixed.

Any problems you come across that you cannot fix yourself is what this list,
archives and WIKI are for, so feel free to check the WIKI and past message
posts first. If your questions aren't answered there, post a question to the
list (hopefully with a URL highlighting the issue) and the gracious members
here will help you as best they can.

Regards,
Ron
