did you try using a definition list?


Sorry, don't know what that is. Is it something that'll help with these issues?

I think I have it fixed - I have the nested menu issue fixed anyways. But I had to apply an IE hack to it as well:

<!--[if IE]>
<style>
li ul
{
position: absolute;
left: 125px; /* Set 1px less than menu width */
top: 0;
display: none;
}
</style>
<![endif]-->

:)

Basically IE had to move the sub menu items 6 px less than FF.

Could someone do me a favor and check it again with FF?

like here http://www.flaxandhemp.bangor.ac.uk/english/fibre_culti.htm

edit: definition lists
http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/lists.html#edef-DL

(i use the definition term <dt> as the list item and the definition description <dd> for the sub item, thus allowing you to target each in your styles

Interesting. Is there some reference I can look at for these definition lists?

You could always give the <li>s or <ul>s individual ids...

Stu Nicholls is very hot on Definition Lists.
