IE incorrectly implements the CSS box model, while FF (and other
browsers) gets it right.  Specifically, IE assumes the width you
specify is for the actual content area of the elements box, while the
CSS spec says that the width you specify is for the entire box
(including padding, border, and margin).  So if you've got 5px of
margin, a 1px border, and 4px of padding, your elements will be 10px
wider than they should be.  Or, if you're looking at it from the IE
side, rather than the standards side, a standards compliant browser
will show your boxes 10px smaller than you're used to.
