menu not working in IE

[Fullwebservice]

Hi

I made this menu http://www.davidstokes.com/_dev/3/ using CSS.

if you look at in in IE and FF you will see whats wrong, the FF one is the way it should look.

-->
html {
font-size: 100%; /* IE5 hack */
}
table {
font-size:1em; /* IE5 hack */
}

Hello Fullwebservice,
These drop-down menus can be very complicated to debug.
I know I'm preaching to the choir here but this is a perfect example of how using the validator while your developing your page can help you.
I'm not saying that fixing all those errors is going to fix your menu but it'll sure be a good start if it doesn't.

Have a look at this very long link (http://qa-dev.w3.org/unicorn/observe?ucn_task=conformance&ucn_uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.davidstokes.com%2F_dev%2F3%2F)
