It could be because of different browsers. It can also be because you are
using fonts that are not standard for different Operating Systems (such as
Comic Sans, a favorite of lot of people, but not a standard Windows font).
CSS stands for Cascading StyleSheets. Its another way of describing and
setting the attributes of text and other items in thepage. One of the
biggest traps of CSS is to use it to position elements, such as Images, at
an exact co-ordinate on the page. Not all browsers support this so that's
why tables have to be used to craft a page carefully. If you set tables to
be a particular percentage of the width of the page (like 80%), it will look
different on other computers because they'll have different monitor sizes
which can throw everything off.
If you post a URL we can help you diagnose the problem and offer advice on
changing it.
