It looks to me like IE6 is adding the text height to the 51px height of the "a" element, expanding the entire list. Putting a background color on ".nav ul" shows me that this is not a margin problem but a padding one. Over-specifying heights does not help when IE gets the calculations wrong. :( In any case, there are problems with this navigation in many scenarios where your pixel-sized font may be overridden, causing the whole bar to break in two. I suggest this possible solution for your horizontal menu: <http://dizque.lacalabaza.net/temp/full-width-navigation-bar-with-css.html> Cordially, David -- ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
