IE5.5+ menu problems
Posted: Wed Nov 21, 2007 2:32 am
Hi everybody. This is obviously my first post. I'm working on a freelance project, and decided to try using a CMS because my client's not very web-saavy; and I'm hoping it'll help her be able to update the site more easily in the future. Until last night, I had pretty smooth sailing, and below you'll find a shot I had browsercam.com take of the site showing the problem area.
Almost everything displays correctly and functions, except the positioning of the menu's been kicked down a few pixels from where it ought to be. It works fine on every other browser, and I'm kind of stymied.
Here's the picture (a la IE 60 on a Windows XP (I think) Pro machine:

I'd show you my code for the menu, but the only real changes to it from the standard installation (that, I might add, works fine in IE6) are colors of the menu in general and the widths of the submenus. It's up in the "head" div with the masthead of the site, and everything else is in separate divs below that.
There's also about a one pixel width space between the right border of the container div and everything contained within it. The width of the whole site (including the IE6 hack that I edited the widths on, that code is below), is 775px.
So, there you go. Any suggestions?
edit: Sorry, I'm also using the CMSMS 1.2 "Barbados" build, and my server is using php 4.x or 5, I can't remember exactly. I remember all the pre-install tests checked out.

Code: Select all
<!--[if lte IE 6]>
<style type="text/css">
#pagewrapper {width:expression(P7_MinMaxW(775,775));}
#container {height: 1%;}
</style>
<![endif]-->
