Internet Explorer 6 and Mozilla browsers handle certain things diffrently,
especially some CSS. In particular, margins and padding are handled
differently. But there are other aspects as well. Mozilla is W3C-compliant
(almost completely), but IE 6 is way behind in terms of standards
compliance.

You have a couple of alternatives, and I would use both of them:

1. Learn how IE 6 and Mozilla handle things differently. Learn the W3C
standards, and design to make the best use of both types of browsers.
2. Test any pages that generate HTML in both IE 6 and FireFox.

And if you're using ASP.NET 1.1, update your browserCaps, because it
doesn't know anything about modern browsers.
