Re: [css-d] Why is my menu floating down in IE7?

Hiya Brett, div#menu has a width of 100% of its container, which (IE<8 thinks) means it has to clear the div#header-logo (even though it's floated, which correctly removes it from the flow in other browsers), which otherwise appear next to it. Remove the width declaration at line 196 of style.css

[css-d] Why is my menu floating down in IE7?

Check out campindy.org/?page=10 in Firefox and IE7 (or lower). In FF it works perfectly, but in IE7 the menu is floated down below the paint image on the left side of the header. You can check the CSS from the site, if you don't know how to do that you probably can't help anyways :p Thanks in adva

I think in the low-end mobile space this makes sense. Those devices for the most part don't support a lot of the CSS layout methods that are used in the high-end mobile and desktop environments. Though it's not like those devices would recognize role="presentation" either... Interesting info, than
