    Looks the same on my computer.

    Perhaps if you gave a bit more detail where the issue is or screen shots might help.

    For what it is worth the blue menu does not even appear in IE6 for me.

    It could be my computer. I have hacked IE6 so that I can run it at the same time as IE7.


    I have attached a screen shot.

    Ok cool, i have it sorted now anyway, i've added

    td img {
    display: block;
    }

    to my css

    I am now thinking of scraping the JS method and using a CSS menu instead

    thanks to all who tried to help

    Good idea, the only thing you should be using JS for with menus is for IE to understand the hover part if it's a drop-down. Now everyone has JS but everyone understands HTML (and either CSS or they're using a text browser/screen reader anyway).

    I've got to say, your thread titles are always so interesting.

    Cross browser compatibility is something all webmaster have to deal with.
    I just viewed the website and it looks fine on my computer.

    Yeah i know, hopefully in a few years it will be distinct and everyone can focus on the standards of xhtml and other similar standards
