Constructing it. I tried converting it to a fixed 3-column CSS-only layout, but I had lots of horizontal positioning problems between the columns. However, I now know that that was probably because of the sum of the widths of the columns being 7px greater than the container. I fixed all the widths before posting :)
As for the javascript, those nav links need to be images, because of the font that the client wants. The web designer is typically good about using plain text and a :hover if it's a "common" font. I know there are CSS methods for doing image rollovers, but last I looked, those were buggy in IE6 or some other common older browser. The IE6 conditional was put there by the web designer (I'm the programmer and more knowledgeable with the "advanced" CSS). That stylesheet likely does not exist (yet). Any and all misspellings rest firmly on his shoulders. I've fixed the conditional statement, created the IE6 stylesheet (with nothing in it), and fixed the spelling mistake ;) However, regardless of whether I use a CSS-only layout, the issue I'm asking about will still remain. Any clues?
