Looks good in Firefox to me. I'm using Firefox 2.0, though, so it might be a rendering issue with the current engine. Can you post a screenshot of what is wrong with it?

The USA site looked OK to me (Firefox 1.5 on MacOS X).
The GBR site had a header in the middle of the page.

Default Validate---

The site looks okay in Firefox 1.5.0.4 in the US.

However, I did a quick validate at validator.w3.org/ and found several errors. I would recommend cleaning up the code and then seeing if the site still has problems viewing in Firefox.

Also, you need to use Javascript to correctly embed flash now and still be valid. I found a website a couple of months ago that recommended using the following type of code -

Code:
//nameoffiel.js

document.write('<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="media/nameoffile.swf" width="110" height="301">');
document.write('<param name="movie" value="media/nameoffile.swf" />');
document.write('<a href="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" target="_blank">');
document.write('This section requires the Macromedia Flash Player to view</a></object>');
This validates for HTML 4.01 strict.

Hope this helps...
