If I double click the HTML file, Firefox renders it fine. If I access it through a Apache, it does not render it right.

I thought it may be Apache but if I access it through Apache using IE, it works fine.

So why would it look different when Firefox loads it using the file:// protocol vs the http:// protocol.

I went to check and the page loaded fine.

Maybe there was caching or something.

Thanks for you for your time.

Are all files loaded?

You can open the Web Console (Web Developer > Web Console;Ctrl+Shift+K) and check the files that are loaded.
