Well, I like it, but Internet Explorer doesn't.

I really like the feel of how I tweaked the page. It is now taking advantage of far more space and shrinks down better, which is nice. For the moment, if you are using FireFox or a current version of Opera, the menu on the right drops down all nice when you hover over the text. Internet Explorer, well, it just sits there. I am debating it I want to spend time figureing out a workabout for the broken browser, if I simply want to reward people for using good, solid, functional browsers, or if I just want to make a non-dynamic menu. It was amusing as I was tweaking various things to see just how IE would react. I had to go through about 6 perfectly good renditions of the page before I could get IE to display like Opera and FireFox...and all of them should have looked exactly alike. Oh well, if I don't get adventurous and try a workaround for IE, I will probably just go with the non-dynamic. Oh, and a sidenote, no braincells where harmed by usage of javascript. It is all CSS.

I like it to.

And I'm sure you'll figure out a way to kick Explorer in the butt. :)

Looks good to me

I feel that I need to offer up the obligatory defense of IE: sure, it's not standards compliant and blah blah blah... but we both know that both FF and Opera have some issues with various things, as well. If there were a perfect browser out there, I'd probably cut back on my cursing by 20% or more. As to whether to modify your site's code to work with IE... well... last I knew, IE still had 90% market share. So.. that's up to you ;) ps. Here's a quirky one for you. I cannot get either IE or Opera to use the font "Miriam." (Which is on the Win2000 cd, but not XP or 2003.) Firefox, however, works fine with this font. What The Fuck ?

If it had not been for their claim way back in the day about being so standards compliant I would not care. Of course, on the same token, I am kinda annoyed that one of the higher ups at Opera Software challenged MS to make IE7 pass the Acid2 test...and then released a browser two weeks later that didn't. ps...No clue about Miriam.
