Re: Site Check---IE 6 dropdown problem

The solution is to create a different margin-left for IE on your nav id and to make ul and li the same width.

Replace the corresponding parts of your css with the following:

<code>
#nav, #nav ul { /* all lists */
margin-top: 15px;
margin-left: 35px !important;
margin-left: 17px;
list-style: none;
float: left;
width: 9.5em;
line-height: 1;
}

#nav li { /* all list items */
position : relative;
float : left;
line-height : 1.3em;
margin-bottom : -1px;
}

#nav li ul { /* second-level lists */
position : absolute;
left: -999em;
margin-left: 9.6em !important;
margin-left : 9.6em;
margin-top: -1.5em;
width: 9.5em;
}

#nav li ul li a {
font: 12px Arial, verdana, sans-serif;
font-weight: bold;
}
</code>
