Hi ,

The website which I developed in asp.net is displayed in a
different way in Mozilla fire fox. It is getting displayed correctly in
IE. How can I display it in Mozilla in the same way. Please give
suggestions

This is really an HTML and CSS issue rather than an asp.net one. It's quite
a big subject too, you're better off posting in a more appropriate group.

I strongly suspect that it *is* being displayed "correctly" in FireFox -
i.e. that you're using non-standard markup which FireFox doesn't understand.

Firstly, make sure your markup is XHTML-compliant: http://validator.w3.org

If your site is on the public Internet, please post the URL...
 
hi Sunil,
i agree with Mark. you should design your site using Firefox as the main
test browser, and comapre IE occassionally to make sure you are still on
track. Firefox is a 'truer' implementation of web standards and if you do
it this way then your site will behave better in most other browsers. IE
has plenty of quirks, most of which you can work around with stylesheet
fixes, but if you design your site only in IE then don't be surprised if it
falls apart in other browsers for all but the most trivial of layouts.

mozilla most likely displays it correctly :) if you want them to behave
thesame you must use the strict model (using lose is almost impossible).
validate often (use http://users.skynet.be/mgueury/mozilla/ to help you)

please note that ie7 is a lot more compliant than ie6 (thanks
microsoft!). so ie7 and mozilla render a lot more alike. safari seems to
be the best standard supporting browser, but using a mac is not really
an option for asp.net developers.
