[SOLVED] IE menu issue

[pukka]

Hello,

I'm having an issue with the menu on a site. On every other browser, the menu appears horizontal like so:

home  about  services  contact  

On IE8 it appears as follows

home
about
services
contact


The CSS for the menu is included below:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
/* by Alexander Endresen and mark and Nuno */
#menu_vert {
/* no margin/padding so it fills the whole div */
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
.clearb {
/* needed for some browsers */
clear: both;
}
#menuwrapper {
/* set the background color for the menu here */
background-color: #FFFFFF;
/* IE6 Hack */
height: 1%;
width: auto;
/* one border at the top */
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
ul#primary-nav, ul#primary-nav ul {
/* remove any default bullets */
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
ul#primary-nav {
/* pushes the menu div up to give room above for background color to show */
padding-top: 1px;
/* keeps the first menu item off the left side */
padding-left: 0px;
}
ul#primary-nav ul {
/* make the ul stay in place so when we hover it lets the drops go over the content below else it will push everything below out of the way */
position: absolute;
/* top being the bottom of the li it comes out of */
top: auto;
/* keeps it hidden till hover event */
display: none;
/* same size but different color for each border */
border-top: 1px solid #C8D3D7;
border-right: 1px solid #C8D3D7;
border-bottom: 1px solid #ADC0C7;
border-left: 1px solid #A5B9C0;
}
ul#primary-nav ul ul {
/* now we move the next level ul down from the top a little for distinction */
margin-top: 1px;
/* pull it in on the left, helps us not lose the hover effect when going to next level */
margin-left: -1px;
/* keeps the left side of this ul on the right side of the one it came out of */
left: 100%;
/* sets the top of it inline with the li it came out of */
top: 0px;
}
ul#primary-nav li {
/* floating left will set menu items to line up left to right else they will stack top to bottom */
float: left;
/* no margin/padding keeps them next to each other, the padding will be in the "a" */
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}
#primary-nav li li {
/* Set the width of the menu elements at second level. Leaving first level flexible. */
width: 177px;
/* removes any left margin it may have picked up from the first li */

How do i fix this?


Thanks.

Like it says in one of the sticky topics a link will do more good then just the CSS as that same CSS is used w/o any problems, you may want to try the IE Web developer tool bar as it can touch on the li/a and show you what it thinks it's CSS is...

Fixed now. Thanks Dr.CSS
