Ed,

You're quite welcome. I've published it here:
http://www.theholiergrail.com/cssd/goodone.html

To fix your li width issue, I assigned a class to the Home link
(li.home). Dividing 100 by 7 obviously doesn't produce an integer.

I seem to recall that one or some browsers out there won't translate
measurements past the tenths place (makes me tenths just thinking about
it). Don't ask me which browsers because I honestly can't remember and
wasn't bright enough to include a URL in the annotated template I keep
here. In any event, a little Googling'll give you answer if you're
desperate to check on the accuracy of that.

Anyway, that simplified the math...I set the base width to 14.2 percent
and bumped up the home LI to 14.75 percent. In theory, this should get
rounded up by browsers which have trouble with the division and keep IE
from expanding the width too far (that's really just a guess).

It seems to work in this case and I've made these alterations to the
version I published at the URL above.

Hope it helps.
