Jennifer:

Briefly, the persistance of the drop down menus in IE7/WinXPSP2 is 
intemittent. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. Problem occurs at 
different text sizes and zoom levels.

I was originally thinking it was the padding on the *ul* or *li* elements 
causing too much space between the *a* elements, but you've got the 
visibility dependent on hovering over the *li*, not the *a*.

Perhaps the margins or padding are causing too much space between the hidden 
*ul*'s. What about increasing the line height on the *ul*'s instead of 
padding; or what about putting the *ul li ul* IE fix before the visibility 
declarations? Or what about getting Chrs Pederick to write a Web Developer 
Toolbar for IE as well as Firefox !!! :-)

Regardless, the site looks very nice in IE&, FF2.0, and O9.2. Good job and 
good luck.

Cheers,
