CSS - Mozilla bug? box-shadow:inset not working properly

Basically the below code should simply be a white page with a shadow around the edge. This works fine in Chrome but I can't seem to get it to work in Firefox!

<html>
<head>
<style type=text/css>
body {
background:#ffffff;
font-family:arial;
margin:auto;
box-shadow:inset 0px 0px 100px #333333;
-moz-box-shadow:inset 0px 0px 100px #333333;
-webkit-box-shadow:inset 0px 0px 100px #333333;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

View the page here:

Look at it in Chrome then Firefox, and tell me if you see a difference : )

Cheers

EDIT: So the post below explained how to fix the above code, a CSS reset worked and also i learned about quirk mode and doctypes :)

However the CSS page i am working on is still suffering from this bug no matter what reset i use. I am not currently using a Doctype as i am not sure what i should put, or whether it would fix the bug.

Here is the complete site:

And the stylesheet:

body {
background:url('bg.png');
font-family:arial;
margin:auto;
box-shadow:inset 0px 0px 100px #333333;
-moz-box-shadow: inset 0px 0px 100px #333333;
-webkit-box-shadow:inset 0px 0px 100px #333333;
}

#footer {
padding-bottom:10px;
margin-top:30px;
}

#page {
width:960px;
height:auto;

background-color:#ffffff;
#background:url('bg2.png');

/*Space*/
padding-top:0px;
padding-bottom:0px;
padding-left:0px;
padding-right:0px;
margin-top:-10px;
margin-bottom:0px;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;

Add this:

html, body {
    height: 100%
}

http://jsbin.com/oyuzug

There is nothing in body, so it has no height.

The only reason it worked without this in Chrome is because you did not include a doctype as the very first line to enable Standards Mode.

Test these in Chrome:

Your original code: http://jsbin.com/urimah

Your original code with doctype: http://jsbin.com/urimah/2

Conclusion: Always include a doctype as the very first line to avoid Quirks Mode and the inconsistencies it brings between different browsers.

Firefox shows you the right thing because right now body has no height. So you have to define the height of your body.

Write this in your CSS:

html, body {
    height: 100%
}
