Text on Nav tabs wrapping in IE until hover - 9/22/2006 3:36:13   
The text on some of my navigation tabs is wrapping in IE. When I hover over them they stop the wrapping.
They're fine in FireFox.

Here's the page.
Here's the stylesheet.

I find that if I have the nav section without left padding then the problem doesn't arise. However, I'd prefer to have the tabs over to the right so that they're away from the logo. Hence the 40% left padding on #nav.

Any advice on my 1st venture into tabs would be most appreciated.

Regards,
spinningjennie

This is another IE bug where you just have to play around until you get something to work. Hopefully fixed for IE7.

Have you tried taking off the padding and floating it? I usually find that if something doesn't work in IE it's padding related.
