My blog works fine in IE 6, but when I open it in Mozilla (1.2a), none of the entries show up at all.  For some reason, it sticks part of my 3/18 entry at the bottom of the links column on the right side, but nothing shows up in the main blog body.  I have no idea how long it's been like this, as I usually do everything blog-related in IE.

Site is here:
Confessions...

For the record, I'd like it to look the same way it does in IE 6, with the body on the left, the sidebar on the right, and all of the text in the blog body at the same width (not extending the whole way to the right below the sidebar).  I just don't know what to change so it works in Mozilla, too.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

(Also, not sure if this is related or not, as this happens in both IE and Mozilla...on my archive pages, how do I get the blog title in the banner to be the same size as it is on the main page?  The archive pages shrink the title font.  No idea how this happened, as it seems to have always been this way.  A friend's page has the archive title at the correct size, but we can't figure out where there's a difference in our code.)

It looks like you may have a closing div tag missing -- that's usually the culprit when your text moves like that.  So check for that, and see if it helps.

And your title in your archives is smaller because its a link; in the default stylesheets, there's a section that looks like this -- you might check to see if its still in your stylesheet:
CODE
    #banner a,
       #banner a:link,
       #banner a:visited,
       #banner a:active,
       #banner a:hover {
 font-family:verdana, arial, sans-serif;
 font-size: x-large;
 color: #FFF;
 text-decoration: none;
 }

Thanks, Kristine!

The title thing worked great.  I don't ever remember taking out anything like that (I mess with it as little as possible), so I'm not sure what happened to it.  Adding the code you gave, plus a font weight line, made it look like the title on the main page.

As for my original problem, is there any way to tell where to start looking for a missing closing div tag, based on where it's putting the text?  Again, I mess with it as little as possible, so I have no idea where to begin looking.  I checked it over and didn't see any missing, but I added an extra closing tag to the end of the sidebar just in case...it didn't help...still looks the same as before.

Thanks again for your help!

Ok, I have the problem half-fixed.  By re-ordering the index, I now got the entries to show up in Mozilla as well as in IE.  However, now my sidebar on the right starts at the end of the last entry!

Anyone have any idea how to fix this one?  I'm hoping this is a simpler fix now that I at least got the entries to show up in both IE and Mozilla.

Thanks!

Ok, I think I have this one fixed now.  If anyone out there was having the same problem, I just adjusted the width % under "content" until the right column moved back to where it was supposed to be.

Thanks again Kristine for the help with the other issue!
