I'm more of a print designer and no web expert but, I can see at a glance that your mark-up is appalling.

Use XHTML for the content and CSS for layout/styling (it's quite easy after a little while) then you've got a fighting chance of browser consistency (with a few conditionals…).

If you don't use CSS these days you are pretty much considered a digital luddite.

Good luck!

There is no magical solution I'm afraid – learn basic (X)HTML/CSS.
