Cross-Browser compatabiltiy issues

Ok. Keep having this horrific annoyance pop up: I work out a CSS / HTML file and prep it for posting, then do so for review. I don't have Firefox, Moz, NS, or whatever.. I use plain and simple IE. Now, apparently, whatever code I'm using will not work with certain non_IE browsers.

So. Can someone tell me what CSS codes work with the likes of Moz, Firefox and other third party browsers?

edit: Code I used that won't show up on FF and Moz:

(No those are not offical redesigns, just me teaching myself how to use CSS.. obviously, with compatability issues_.

Try to validate your HTML and CSS using the W3 validation system. Compliant HTML and CSS should work on all major browsers with a few notable exceptions, which I would share if I wasn't so tired at the moment.

HIGHLY recommend you pick up 'Designing with Web Standards' by Jeffrey Zeldman. Easily the best book out there on web design based on standards. Your page is not the problem if it's designed right. The out of date browser is. At least take the time to cruise into B&N and flip through it. Really good book.
