If you go to www.brightfusehosting.com/newindex.php you'll see what I mean. The nav menu is screwed up, and the links on the gray tables resemble that almost of the nav bar links.

View in IE to replicate the issue.

In IE that happens when the widths of all the elements adds up to more than the total width of the box they're in. Understand the box model - box+border+margins+padding=total width.

What she's saying is that what you have there is a float drop; that is, IE thinks you have too much space in the menu, so it's dropping the last one down. IE6, especially, will also double a left margin if an element is floated left.

http://www.positioniseverything.net/...ed-margin.html

Use conditional comments in the head section to kick IE into compliance, using a stylesheet just with the fixes for it. Put the stylesheet link AFTER the one to your regular stylesheet.

Example:
<!--[if IE ]>
<link href="path/iefixes.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<![endif]-->

You can specify if IE7, if lte IE7 (less than or equal to), if IE6, and so on, to target specific versions that are having the problem. I have specified lesser margins and padding on menus in the past just for IE to kick it into compliance.

That help?
