Width ignored in IE6 | Sub-menus disappear | Cross compatibility

Sent by Renae Willis on 5 June 2007 14:02


I've been squirreled away in my house for a few days trying to learn
web design, trading sunlight and sleep for recreation of a poorly
coded existing website. The objective: valid code and css menus. This
while retaining the table produced look for visual consistency so that
we may switch out pages one by one.

Using netrenderer what I have so far renders in IE6 and IE5 with what
looks like total disregard for the widths I've set:

Additionally, the css drop down menu (alternate content for the flash
menu) no longer has it's sub-menus once I place it in the page. The
isolated, functional (in IE7 & Firefox 2) menu can be found here:

Also, are there better ways to test for cross compatibility?
netrenderer will only generate an image of the way pages would appear
in IE5 and 6, so I can't test to see how (dis)gracefully this menu
experiment downgrades.

Since one of the major purposes of this endeavor was to have css
menus, (I'll be adding another one next) I'm starting to worry that
I'll never make it back out of this house. Any suggestions, tips,
pointers (read: HELP) would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
