Basically the below code should simply be a white page with a shadow around the edge. This works fine in Chrome but I can’t seem to get it to work in Firefox!
<html>
<head>
<style type=text/css>
body {
background:#ffffff;
font-family:arial;
margin:auto;
box-shadow:inset 0px 0px 100px #333333;
-moz-box-shadow:inset 0px 0px 100px #333333;
-webkit-box-shadow:inset 0px 0px 100px #333333;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
View the page here:

Look at it in Chrome then Firefox, and tell me if you see a difference : )
Cheers
EDIT: So the post below explained how to fix the above code, a CSS reset worked and also i learned about quirk mode and doctypes 🙂
However the CSS page i am working on is still suffering from this bug no matter what reset i use. I am not currently using a Doctype as i am not sure what i should put, or whether it would fix the bug.
Here is the complete site:

And the stylesheet:
body {

-webkit-box-shadow:inset 0px 0px 100px #333333;
}
#footer {

I am sure its not all great but i am learning and this issue is my main focus right now : )
Thanks a lot.
Add this:

There is nothing in
body, so it has no height.The only reason it worked without this in Chrome is because you did not include a doctype as the very first line to enable Standards Mode.
Test these in Chrome:
Your original code: http://jsbin.com/urimah
Your original code with doctype: http://jsbin.com/urimah/2
Conclusion: Always include a doctype as the very first line to avoid Quirks Mode and the inconsistencies it brings between different browsers.
