Validity is a good thing, but unless you have some horrible errors that
browsers can't figure out a somewhat common correction for, validity in
itself won't change how browsers render your page.
The 'body {font-size: 100%} you have now gives the same font-size in all
browsers - default. However, the 'font-size: 80%' you have further in
will end up +/- 1px because of rounding-differences in various browsers.
That is as expected.

It does work - in 'standards mode'.

IE6 in 'standards mode' uses exactly the same box model as Firefox.

Which version? No Fx version drops anything at my end.
You have managed to squish the main content into a narrower space in all
browsers but IE6, and haven't done anything to prevent main-content
dropping in IE6.
I'm not sure what you want that page to look like in any browser
anymore, so I'll step aside until you have made up your mind on the issue.
FWIW: we generally don't use, or need, html tables for layout.
