Dreamweaver Table Problem with Firefox

Not sure if this is a CSS issue or not, but when I use dreamweaver to set my tables to "center", IE shows them centered, but firefox shows them off to the left. Not sure what the problem is. I'm using a dreamweaver template and I'm not very well versed in CSS, but I removed the table formatting CSS, and it still won't center my tables in Firefox. Not sure whats going on. Any help is appreciated.

Page.txt is the html
Layout and layout2 are css

First of all, lose all the absolute positioning, it's not necessary, it can cause problems in IE6 (and below), and most of all, it's just NOT necessary. Learn to use the normal document flow and floats.

To center a container in STANDARDS COMPLIANT browsers you do this:

#container{width: XXXpx; margin: 0 auto;}

That's it, you MUST assign a width and the margin: 0 auto sets the top and bottom margins to 0 and the left and right to auto -- centered!

You'll never get proper centering with the absolute positioning that DW uses - badly!
