I am having a problem with my drop down in IE7. There appears to be a "gap" in between the nav bar and drop down menu bar, and if you don't move your mouse down really fast, you lose the drop down. I tried setting the alignment to 90% so it would overlap a little, then I tried raising the z index of the drop down but nothing seems to be working.

in the menu.css file, try changing the height of the UL to 67px; instead of 68px;


ul#cssmw {
background-image: url(../cssmw_images/bluenavbar.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
cursor: default;
height: 67px;
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0 0 0 0;
padding: 0 0 0 0;
}

Thank you so much, that worked ! I have been pulling my hair out trying to figure out what went wrong.
I have one other question now, on the nav bar I have 1 link that the text is like 3 times as long as the rest..I had to do some playing with the margins to get all the main elements in the nav bar to look right, and now the drop down for the "over texted" link is way off to the left. I want to keep the drop downs where they are for all the other main nav elements but find a way to push the drop down for that 1 to the right so it is more centered. Is this possible, or do all the dropdowns have to have "global" settings? the link again is http://www.clickhappytesting.com
And thanks again for the prior fix

All of the nav bars will have the same global setting.

I guess I can live with it being a little off center. Thanks for checking.
