Menu not appear properly in IE7

When Siteassist Professional builds the pages - the menu appears as a line of text, strung together in IE7 (which is clickable), but with none of the styling.

I did notice the comment about IE6 and the changed code in the head, but it does not work for IE7

Ca you help?

Regards
Jack

when i view source of the page, there is no doctype tag.

change:
undefined
undefined
<head>

to:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>

Thank you for bringing that to my attention - it works ok now.

I didn't realise that Siteassist Professional did not put them in automatically - Am I missing something here? - Is there a setting that I must choose to have this inserted when the pages are built?

Thank you
Jack

Menu styles wrong

Jason - do you know why the DOCTYPE isn't inserted? I have had this problem after installing 'new' upgrades to DW extensions. I think this may be incorrect versions of various files when installing upgrades - in Adobe Extension Manager I have had to click on 'no, don't replace this file' hundreds of times (the Manager reports the version being installed is older than existing). As a result I am now forced to click on 'Yes to all' which means I end up with 'older' versions of the various component files - there is no alternative 'No to all' button! I may raise this as a separate thread by the way which I hope you won't mind.
