You are not using doctypes so your page looks different in FF and IE. Google
for "CSS box model" to learn more.

This is the culprit:

#rightcolumn
{
width: 830px;
padding-left: 150px;
padding-right: 150px
...
}

IE in quirks mode takes the width... Huh, I think it takes borders and
padding into width, but not margins? Not sure, I never use quirks mode.

FF on the other hand probably does the same in quirks mode as otherwise, it
takes the width, adds padding, then borders, then margin. And you end up
with 1130px wide container.

Set the DOCTYPE to Transitional and width to 530 and you'll be fine (or at
least better .

Hope it helps.

If you want your content to look perfect on an iPhone you must use the viewport meta tag. Without it, your page may look like thumbnail. I had not heard of this tag until now. But it does the trick.


<meta name="viewport" content="width=320, user-scalable=yes">

Add this tag to the head section of the HTML page. If you set user-scalable to no, then your users wont be able to zoom in or out, so it is friendly to set it to yes (unless you are writing a page that is not meant to be zoomed in).
