Perhaps this article on A List Apart by Bobby Van Der Sluis can help.

Remove all the whitespace between each set of the <li></li> tags.  That will make IE behave.

 

i.e: no whitespace inbetween the sets of tags.....

 

<li><a href="" href="" service</a></li><li><a href="" href="" album</a></li><li><a href="" href="" us</a></li><li><a href="" href="" href="" board</a></li>

 

This same problem happenes if you create a display:inline <li> item - it renders one white space if there are any.

Got an error on that page.....

 

You appear to be missing the ##'s around expandPath.

 

Could not find the included template expandPath(header.cfm).

Note: If you wish to use an absolute template path (e.g. TEMPLATE="/mypath/index.cfm") with CFINCLUDE then you must create a mapping for the path using the ColdFusion Administrator. Using relative paths ( e.g. TEMPLATE="index.cfm" or TEMPLATE="../index.cfm") does not require the creation of any special mappings. It is therefore recommended that you use relative paths with CFINCLUDE whenever possible.

The error occurred in /vservers/thehatchflys/htdocs/controls/template.cfm: line 12

10 : </cfsilent> 11 : <!--- include application header ---> 12 : <cfinclude template="expandPath( header.cfm)"> 13 : <!--- include application navigation ---> 14 : <cfinclude template=" navigation.cfm">

thanks! thats the best one i have seen so far.
the only 2 i have tested so far that aren't so good is on ie mac it floats up near top and on pc opera 8 it's kinda funky.

seems to have even fixed my 1 px left float on safari for the header whoo hoo.

another problem is the menu on pc ie6 has too big of spaces, any suggestion on that or any of it?

btw~ i'm not charging the client for cssp, just going so it doesnt have to be perfect ;)

thanks

This was on this list recently:

--- quoting
Looks like someone has found a mostly-reliable CSS-only solution to
that common footer problem - getting a footer to stick to the bottom
of the viewport no matter how long or short the content is, which
doesn't overlap the content when the window is resized:

Explanation:
Example:

--- end quoting

Seems to work in Safari and degrades okay in IE Mac.

Hth,
