I believe it has to do with the way IE deals with floats vs the way Firefox
deals with floats. Have a read of:
http://www.positioniseverything.net/easyclearing.html

It explains the problem really well, as well as providing a nice way of
fixing it.

Cheers,

Seona.

Interesting what IE does, though I don't know why.  Well, you can get 
the effect you're looking for in Fx by adding
   
after the last DIV with your word-definition-link, i.e.
   [last-link]

Anyway, I think this wouldn't be any good.  Since most likely what you 
want to achieve is the words/links width, you may as well try something 
a little bit simplier, and that's to change a little the HTML structure 
and the CSS such as (example: letter "B"):

 
 
 Barrel
 Blue
  
 
 

 
   .main_square A {
 float: left;
 width: 20%;
   }
   .main_square BR {
 clear: left;
   }
 

I've tried in Fx 1.5.0.1, Opera 9-prev2 & IE6 and it seems to work just 
as expected, so give it a try.
