Adding the DOCTYPE is helpful, but means a lot more if the markup is
actually valid to the DTD you've specified.  Try getting your HTML and CSS
to pass the validators at <http://validator.w3.org/> and then it will be
much easier to proceed from there to work out these issues.

Correction in my last statement, it also does the same thing in Mozilla and
Opera.
It displays the way I expect it to in IE.  I am using the latest version of
all these browsers.

I just added the doctype declaration:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" 
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> 

That seems to work better now.  The only peculiarity is when I display full
screen in Mozilla, one div goes all the way to the right and the rest go to
the left. 
That does not happen in Opera or IE.  Any suggestions there?
