stackoverflow has helped learn lots of cool stuff but unfortunately I'm stuck on something and don't know how to research my way out of it....so here goes floating a question which I hope has a simple answer.
I've laid out a website which works great and is just what I want, it uses a great plugin called LemmonSlider.js and I've managed to make it entirely liquid in layout...almost!
The problem is that it works perfectly on Safari, iOS and Chrome but when I test it on Firefox things go bad, very bad. I haven't tested in IE but I can imagine things will be just as funky.
Below is some simplified code to give you an idea of what I've done...
I've already tried using min-height in the body, html tag but that doesn't seem to help.
Any input would be hugely appreciated

<img src="any/sized/image" />
</li>
<li>
<img src="any/sized/image" />
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</body>
</html>
change the #content
#content {
position:absolute;
top:25%;
width:100%;
height:50%;
background-color:blue;
overflow:hidden;
}
Other wise... If you are not to invested in your css. I would totally recommend using the 1140 grid. Its pretty cool cause the grid also comes with media queries for responsive design.
Hope this works for you
Cheers
