Hi Bruce,
There are lots of ways to create drop shadows. Your site seems to be
down so I can't see your particular situation. Here are some boxes with
rounded corners that I played with:

This design is an extension of an idea from VertexWerks:

Lots more ideas at the Wiki:

Try adding this to the beginning of your CSS:

    *  {margin: 0; padding: 0;}

You can then add back margins and padding to your taste. These
spacing issues are often due to differences between browsers in
the amount of space they add to block elements. 

I don't know if that is the issue you are having, but it may be worth
a shot.

Life. Love. Peace.
David
