One solution is two use one image. Another solution is to apply a 
z-index to the #nav div for IE7 <.


div#nav {
   z-index: 1; /* ADD, layers nav above other positioned elements */
   position: relative;
   float: left;
   width: 770px;
   border-top: 1px solid #FFF;
   border-bottom: 1px solid #FFF;
   margin: 0;
}


A third option is having the menu come last in the source, just a bit 
more tricky though. :-)
