    Hello,

    I have a css only menu that works great everywhere! Except IE of course.

    It displays a little behind and to the right of where it's supposed to be which makes it hard to navigate.

    I've tried everything I can think of including z-index without luck.

    The URL is:
    http://fearelise.com

    You are welcome to view the site in both IE and FF to see the difference.

    You can view source to see the code.

    To see the css, go to http://fearelise.com/a-css.css

    Thank you all in advance!!

    It appears to look the same for me. I'm using IE 8. Which version of IE is giving you trouble? I can only test on 8, but you can use
    <!--[if IE]>
	<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="ie-only.css" />
<![endif]-->
    Code (markup):
    And copy your navigations styles into this new stylesheet and make the changes to make it work in IE

    I guess it's just IE6 and IE7... it looks normal in other browsers.

    I know there are a lot of little tricks to coding around ie, but there's something I'm missing. Surely other sites with dropdown css menus get around it - but I can't figure out how.

    I think I know what your talking about now except on my screen I am getting the navigation overlapping a little, but in front of the header image. If thats what your talking about try making the following changes.

    Add to #menu
    top:13px;
    Code (markup):
    Change #head 
    height:140px;
    Code (markup):
    That fixed what I am seeing on my computer.
