    I’m having a challence where my menu is displayed correctly in FF, but when I open the page in IE, the menu suddenly appears somewhere in the middle of the page, far from where it needs to be.

    Page: http://www.beeker.eu/demo/at/atadmin/home.htm
    Stylesheet: http://www.beeker.eu/demo/at/atadmin/main.css

    It’s so annoying. I know it must be some small change I need to make, but I can’t seem to find WHERE! undecided

    What am I doing wrong so that IE messes up the menu? Any suggestions for change?

    Please help!



    PS. I’m also having problems with changing the color of the current page in my Wayfinder menu. My current css code:
    #AT_columnBox_content ul li.currentPage a {color: #e49711;}

    And my current menu code:
    <div id="AT_columnBox">
    <div id="AT_columnBox_top"><div></div></div>
    <div id="AT_columnBox_content">
    <ul><li class="active 'currentPage'"><a href="/demo/at/atadmin/administraties-home.htm" title="Home" >Home</a></li>
    (...)

    One possible solution I can think of would be to let Wayfinder make an id="currentPage" instead of a class="active ’currentPage’". If I only knew how! wink For now, any suggestions would be much appreciated!

      Getting IE to play nice with standard presentation rules is a whole skillset in itself. It’s nothing you are doing wrong, it’s a matter of learning what IE does wrong and how to work around it.

      That said, try giving the left column a right margin, and the right column a left margin, of the remaining space in your wrapper container. Alternatively, you could try floating them both left, as that will cause them to line up from left to right as space allows.

        Thanks for your answer. Unfortunately it didn’t work. The menu is just placed somewhere else.... not in the right place... huh

          In your CSS file you have this -

          /*		.AT_columnBox_content {
          			float: left;
          			width: 203px;} */

          The /* & */ means it’s commented out, try removing the /* & */ tags
