Huh! dmetzcher – I thought it was just me!
I have 3 WP 2.0 blogs all with the same problem in firefox.
Interesting thing – looks ok in IE6!
Will keep looking for the fix 🙁
My site – http://thesilentdeep.com
I had posted some fixes on my Test Blog
http://www.vindictivebastard.net/test101/
View that blog once in both IE and FF =)

P.S. I just took all the fixes that Octa and I had done from this post, and added them all within one post on that test blog. =) Original forum post here:

Hi Tack,
Yeah, I didn’t notice it before I posted the question, but it looks fine in Safari, too. Just Firefox has the problem for me. I see that you have already corrected it and blogged about it, so I’m on my way to fix it now. Was this just Firefox 1.5? I just upgraded a few weeks ago, and think that I would have noticed if 1.0 caused the same problem. When I first set things up, I was making all sorts of edits, so it’s pretty sad if I managed to miss that the footer was a bit off. Anyway, I’m off to fix it now.
heh heh Dmetzcher, we were both in the same boat – heaps of edits before noticing it and then – “was this my fault?” . 😀
Not sure if its in Firefox before 1.5 – I upgraded both at the same time more or less.
I have FF 1.5 and IE6 and tried these fixes on WP version 1.5.2 and 2.0 RC3 which is basically version 2.0. And it was working just fine for me.. =) I’m glad to see they are working for you guys. =)

The edits fixed it for me too, but the second of the two edits for the 1px shift problem caused a problem in the header. My guess is that it’s because I have some ads up there, so I just took that part of the fix out, and everything worked.
This part worked:
Replace:
#footer{background:url("< ?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/images/kubrickfooter.jpg?) no-repeat bottom; border: none;}
With:
#footer{background:url("< ?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/images/kubrickfooter.jpg?) no-repeat bottom left; border: none; }
#footer { /margin-left: 2px; }
This part caused the issue with the header, so I left it out:
Replace:
#header { margin: 0 !important; margin: 0 0 0 1px; padding: 1px; height: 198px; width: 758px; }
With:
#header { margin: 0 !important; margin: 0 0 0 2px; padding: 1px; height: 198px; width: 758px; }
dmetzcher, oh ok. Yeah, like I said, I did these fixes on an “unmolested” Kubrick theme. Meaning nothing special done to it or added to it, but maybe some imagery changes. =) But, atleast you have it working right anyway, with the ads above. =)
And thanks for sharing your reply with what code changes do work with ads above the header. =) If someone else out there happens to do the same stuff as you did…they’ll still be able to have it looking good in both IE and FF. =)
