non-scrolling header menu expanding over page content

Recommended Posts

Hi, I am new here, but our web designer used this forum a lot and said it is really helpful. :)

 

Unfortunately, said designer is not available for an unknown time, and we are having a persistent problem with our website. Specifically, the non-scrolling header menu is expanding over and blocking the page content in some browsers.

 

One of our customers was good enough to send me screen shots to establish it occurs in IE6 over Windows XP SP2. A screen shot of the home page as it appears to her is attached to this post, along with our menu and css, which I suspect is the problem.

 

Our website is: http://www.victorsfood.com.au

 

Any help would be much appreciated!

I looked at your files and saw that there were a lot of repeats in the stylesheet inside the if lt IE 7 comments, so I started looking for differences, but soon gave up. If you have a different stylesheet or styles inside conditional comments, just show the few that are different.

 

Then I noticed that it was the same stylesheet!!

 

I copied it all over to IE6 and saved the stylesheet with a different name styleie6.css inside the conditional comment and started editing, but nothing worked.

 

I then checked for errors here:- http://validator.w3.org/ and it showed 31 errors, mostly unimportant except for

is missing, which caused IE6 to use the main stylesheet. I deleted the

    I hope that cures the problem in IE6.
