Frustrating issue with navigation bar

    Hi all,

    This has been bugging me for a while: The navbar on my site is showing up inconsistently in different browsers. In most configurations, it looks okay. But in some, the farthest-right button is being bumped down to a second line.
    It's the blue "Contact Us" button in the top-right that's the problem. In some browsers (opera, etc), it shows up underneath the "Home" button.
    The address is formo*samedic*altravel [dot] com. Take out the *s.

    Any suggestions? :confused:

    Thanks in advance,

    FMT

    Try adding a solid height and width to the buttons so they take up the same space on both browsers. Also make sure you aren't using depreciated HTML & CSS code on your site as new browsers won't use them.

    Which browser exactly are you having this problem on?

    Just checked your Site in fireFox 3.5, IE8 and Opera 10 - works fine on all of them :)

    Also displays correctly in IE7, have you applied a fix already?

    If not, ensure that you have explicitly specified these properties for each button:

    height
    width
    margin
    border-width
    padding

    Several browsers apply different default values to these properties, and an extra pixel of margin or padding on every button can cause the problem that you are having.
