    I am trying to make a tab area and its down-pad.

    I have
    -container
    -header
    -header left
    -header right
    -ul (here i give a padding top and height for the tab menu)

    - tabmenu (this is the pad)


    Firefox shows the page ok, IE breaks it. Half of the buttons are not visible, i tried overflow visible, didnt help. I tried giving line-height to header right and making valign bottom, didnt work either.

    Any ideas?

    I have had this same problem many times... IE sucks. There's maybe a IE Hack, but all I have done for it is put a negative pixel margin on say the tabmenu... so
    .tabmenu {
            margin-top:-2px;
    }
    Code (markup):
    or however many pixels the gap is. If there is a better hack I would like to know as well.

    The problem with the buttons is that half of them are not shown. It seems overflow doesnt do anything with IE. Or i am missing something, i was able to make the buttons come down to the pad, but half of them still doesnt show up, they dont really look identical.

    Off topic: The link was not an affiliate link, this is not advertisement thread, if you did care to follow it, you would just see a blank page with a broken CSS element. I didnt want to have my domain name here because this site ranks high on google. I dont see why you deleted my link. Its good you take moderation seriously, but this is kinda funny.

    5-6. But it doesnt matter, i added new buttons, go to pro2.html on the same web site.
    Thats the new one. I think i gave up lol, im going to develop on FF and then work on IE. Im pulling my hair for an hour :/
