IE6 - menu not showing and page layout is broken

Hi, I used Sculptor and Menu Writer to build this site and it's not displaying correctly on IE6. index.html
The top menu is not visible and the content of the page is being pushed down to the bottom.
Thanks so much for your help!

menu fixed

Hi, FYI - I figured out the problem with the menu and it's working now. I'm still having issues with the content being pushed down. I'll keep digging.
Thanks again.

when a content area is pushed down like that, it means the width of the content in that area is greater than what the containing element has to offer.

I was able to get the content to push up by removing all the width attributes on the table, td and image elements as well as the needHelpButton id from the Need help button on the page.


you will need to examine the widths being used for elements to make sure that what you are using is available to the containing element.

also... question for mobile devices

Hi, Thanks so much, this helped!
I know this is a more complicated issue, but the site is not displaying correctly on the new Android phone. The site only shows the left side of the page on the device's screen. Do you have any recommendations on troubleshooting this?
Thanks again.

sites designed for desktop browsers will not display properly on mobile browsers.

you will need to create a new design specifically for the mobile browser. See the following for some details:
