Paul,
I've taken a quick look, and from a quick test, the following fixes
the layout problem in IE:
Change the #container width to 752px
Change #navbar50 to the following:
#navbar50 {
display: inline;
width: 562px;
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px;
background-color: #eee;
}
Add in:
#navbar50 a{
float: left;
width: 188px;
}
That will now display the three images beside each other.
To stop horizontal scrolling, you now need to bring in the width of
#leftnav and the image inside it a couple of pixels (4px - i think)
Also, that series of about 50 break tags in a row is very strange -
I'm not sure why they are in there, and they don't need to be if you
rework the floats a little.
