CSS and Firefox

I've just learned that although my webpages show up fine in IE, they do not
show properly in Firefox. The problem appears to me that that some of the
CSS is "invisible" to Firefox.

I opened a page in Firefox with Firebug, so I could see the CSS that it was
reading from, and it does not see, for example, the "body {.etc., etc.}"
rules. It does see some other things.

Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong.

Could I just post the CSS and part of the HTML? The pages are restricted to
users with an Academic Medical Center account.

Design in FF and hack IE.

Following the above rule will make life a lot easier. FF is standards
compliant and IE is not, especially IE 6, IE 7 better and hopefully they get
it right in IE 8.
