I've been straining my brain for hours last night, and still this morning trying to get this stupid sliced template to show up correctly in firefox and can't for the life of me figure out what I'm doing wrong. If anyone can help me I'm open to trading content for a bit of assistance getting this coding to function right.
It's mostly a background image for a container div that I CAN'T, no matter what I do, get to show up in firefox. If anyone is confidently familiar with css/html and divs, I'd definitely appreciate the help.

something to do with "clear" i think, i forget.
LOL wow I can't believe it worked. I basically just set #footer{clear:both;} in the css
then did <div id="footer"> </div> right before I closed the container div.
THANK YOU SO MUCH. I tried that last night with no luck, but I suppose there was probably something else wrong as well. At least in the process of doing this, I validated my css.

Sometimes you need to point to your .css file and do a refresh so that your browser doesn't use the cached version.
