I can see the different amount of whitespace in IE and FF, although 
neither looks particularly wrong to me.  I don't see anything glaring to 
cause it, but I'm guessing that you're running into different defaults 
in the two browsers.  You have to find elements that have the wrong 
padding in FF and assign the IE values in CSS rules.

Another way to work with varying defaults is to grab the defaults from 
FF, which are easily available (<FF dir>res/html.css) and place them 
ahead of your own declarations.  Then you can tweak these until 
everything looks correct in all browsers you're testing.  I suppose this 
could be done with IE values too, but I don't know if these are as 
easily available.

P.S. You also might want to consider validating your HTML and CSS.
