float problem

[alemcherry]

my site looks good in IE and in Opera but not at all in Firefox.
I use float for some parts but most is just basic divs under each other.

try

clear: both;

This will make sure that nothing can be floating next to the footer, thus pushing it down below the other content.

As far as the padding, I believe that the total width = width you specify + padding + margin. So lets say you have a div with the styles width: 10px and padding: 5px, the total width will be 10+5+5=20px.

Now, the problem with the top images probably has to do with the padding and/or margin not being specified somewhere. IE is a lot less picky with this, so you don't always have to specify. But, it's hard for me to tell just by looking at the page.
