www.lemonshindig.com/design1/template.html - Only works in IE.

I'm having troubles laying out the design as seen above. I can get it to work using tables. Here's the problem-

WITH DOCTYPE and a few CSS changes- Looks great in firefox, but I get undesired results in IE. What IE does is sets the viewpoint height (100%) to the left section and then ADDS the 18px for the bottom two, so there's a vertical scrollbar.

W/O DOCTYPE - Looks good in IE, but I don't get anything in firefox.

What I need is a way to accomplish that design while including the doctype. I know I could do it using a crapton of DIV elements using height/width: 100%; and padding, but i'd have to layer 3 seperately assigned DIVs for every section. And aside from that, I would have to find a different way to do the bottom 2 sections, because i can't do padding-top: 100%; and get the results i'm looking for.

please help!
