Firefox - not displaying correctly

I apologise in advance as I am somewhat of a n00b.

I have created a website (http://www.edgehillcu.co.uk) in dreamweaver, but when the website is viewed in firefox it doesn't appear correctly, this seems to happen with every dreamweaver designed site I create.

Does anybody have any tips or advice.

Kind Regards

This is most likely due to the fact that Dreamweaver is crap.

Dreamweaver isn't crap! Only it's CSS editor!

thankyou for the swift, albeit not highly useful replies.

What can I do to solve this issue, also, what is better than dreamweaver to use to design and build websites, if I cannot use HTML or other coding languages.

That is the big problem.
Sometimes Firefox and IE won't be displayed the same.

Best bet is to change your code to PHP if you can.
If you already did, I don't honestly know what else to do.

Sorry, I have to concur with Keith- Dreamweaver is crap.

It uses non-existent tags (valign="middle", for one) and creates hideously complex layouts that are virtually impossible to modify by hand.

Dreamweaver is crap. Fancy crap, but crap nonetheless.

I hardly use it for HTML anyways. I use it cause it has the best PHP colour highliting I've ever seen. It reconises all functions and highlights them if they're spelled right, etc...

If you know a better HTML editor, feel free to tell me about.

If you cant use HTML or any other coding languages, I'd suggest you learn one
