Hi Jason,
You are missing a height in the clearing div before the end </div> of
the #content-bg. Then FF thinks (and Netscape, and I assume all Gecko
based browsers) it can be omitted. So:
.clearing { clear: both; height: 1px; }
See testpage here
<http://home.tiscali.nl/developerscorner/css-discuss/test-jassanius.htm>.
And to compensate for the extra 1px in the lenght of the page, you can
add also: margin-bottom: -1px. ;-)

btw:
You are aware of the loading time of the page? With fast dsl it took me
about 20 sec. of petience. And with a dialing modem ... unknown, a speed
rapport cannot be made.
See Web Page Speed Report of Websiteoptimization
<http://www.websiteoptimization.com/services/analyze/wso.php?url=http://home.tiscali.nl/developerscorner/css-discuss/terst-jassanius.htm>:
"The size of this web page (1,008,094 bytes) has exceeded the maximum
size of 1,000,000 bytes."
More as 1MB! Page itself is 56kB (rather big too), but the images are
the real culprits. I hope you have planned to split up the page and/or
to make thumbnails of the photographs. :-)
