Getting CSSMenu to validate

Hi there.
I was wondering if anyone can come up with a solution as to how to get the CSSMenu Vert to validate with the W3C?
This code is stopping it from validating
Code: Select all
#primary-nav li, #primary-nav li.menuparenth { _float: left; _height: 1%; }
#primary-nav li a { _height: 1%; }
but when I remove it, it looks terrible in IE.
Please help.

I managed to solve the problem, so now the CSSMenu Vertical validates with the W3C.
The solution?
I removed the
Code: Select all
/* IE Hack, will cause the css to not validate */
#primary-nav li, #primary-nav li.menuparenth { _float: left; _height: 1%; }
#primary-nav li a { _height: 1%; }
from the 'Default CSS Menu Vertical' stylesheet, and copied it into Notepad.
I then saved the notepad file as 'ie.css' and uploaded it to the server (root level, but you could set up a 'styles' folder if you want)
I then went to the 'CSSMenu Vert 1 Col' template and added the following before the tag:
Code: Select all
<!--[if IE]>
<style type="text/css">
@import url("/ie.css");
</style>
<![endif]-->
It works a treat on the site. Many thanks for such a great system.
