text boundaries differences in different browsers

Hey,

I'm working with CMS Made Simple 1.6 "New Caledonia" from Windows. It set up everything in the beginning from a Mozilla browser.
As I switched to Chrome I realised that the homepage actually appears different: the horizontal boundaries for "Content" are missing so that the text appears all across the page rather than in a confined section below the banner. This is both for the right hand side and the left hand side were text is longer than the navignton menu.
The problem doesn't show in Mozilla, but it does in Chrome and Explorer (I didn't try any others).
On the other hand, I have a global content block that appears on Mozialla just under the navigation menu, in Chrome it's before content where the navigation/module section is set up like this:


 
    Menu:
        {cms_module module='menumanager' template='andreas01 : andreasmenu'  collapse="1"}   


        {global_content name='side'}


and the content like this:

 
   
   
                  {content}

   
   
 


I'm assuming that there is a command line that would confie/position the content block which Mozilla might do automatically but Chrome doesn't? Or some of my ids/classes are wrong?
Thanks a lot for your help.
Amelie

It likely lies within your stylesheets and/or xhtml. Have you tried running it through the w3c validator?
