think the problem is with declaring any positional variables. In this

Thanks, Ernie. I think it is Okay now. This fix seems too easy, 
but it seems to work. I changed margin-top: 40px in the container div 
that goes below the banner into padding-top: 40px.

On IE7 your left navigation ripples. A height or margin/padding or font change?

The "Internet instruction" list is peculiarly positioned compared to Fire Fox.

Most importantly, your flyout menu doesn't work in IE6. The technique
works fine in modern browsers and even IE7. For IE6 you'll need to use
one of several possible tricks. Two of the standard sources are:
