Hi all - after attempting to re-create some navigation that used tables and abandoning that effort, I am trying to use the "suckerfish" rollover navigation.

http://www.lauralewismantellmd.com/index3C.html

I am having some trouble though:

1) This doesn't seem to be in the center, where I want it. What do I have to change to make it center.

2) When you rollover the "more" link there is a drop-down menu. It sits directly below the parent link in FF, but bumps out to the right in IE. How do I make it sit directly below the parent link in IE.

TIA!

OK - I got it to line up underneath directly in both IE and FF, and here is what I did:

li>ul was changed from left: auto; top: auto

to top: 15px; left: 15px;

I'm just not sure if there is a better way to accomplish this...

TIA

Update: Got the whole nav to center by adding a width... can we all give a big "duh!!!"

Thanks! Now I have a trickier question.

If I put the border in the li li declaration, I really like the way it looks without a background-color declaration in li ul. Unfortunately, this breaks the dropdown, and once you hover onto the second link, the dropdown disappears. Is there anyway to avoid this? Is there anyway to make it work with the transparent space between the li ul li links?

ETA: These spaces are only visible in IE. In FF, the boxes are right up against each other. Also, if I don't have clear space between the boxes, but instead have a background color, it works fine.
