You are going about things backwards, for a good reason, but with the wrong effect.
The goal is to produce a website that is standards compliant, and that works in IE.
Start by making a site that is standards-compliant. If it is, there is an excellent chance it will look 'fine' in Mozilla. Once you have it working there, THEN you can modify that code to work around the small issues in IE.
When you start with non-standard code to please IE, and then modify that code to work on Mozilla, you will find that the changes will ALSO cause problems with IE.
In my experience, you will go back and forth a lot less if you start with standards-based (mozilla) , and add exceptions (IE).
