Hi Guys

Having issues with a site just launched where the menu dissapears on
the Mac in IE.

The pertaining stylesheet is

It starts with this problem: you #nav li has no width declared, but it is floated. IE Mac require the width on floats, else it expands them:

You could float the <a> as well, that will possibly fix it. Not sure what will happen with your nested lists though.


As a possible alternative, take a look at this one:

I use display:inline-block for IE Mac, and a few other goodies.
