I've implemented the horizontal drop down menu discussed recently in
this newsgroup, and it works nicely under Galeon and Mozilla, but
not IE 5.0.
Here are the problems:
Under IE 5.0, the there is no drop down menu functionality at all.
I wanted to implement an alternative stylesheet for IE, but my
link to it is apparently broken. What is wrong with my link? I'd
rather use this method to reference a local set of styles defined for
IE, but don't know if that can be done.
In galeon and Mozilla, the initial "D" in the text paragraph is styled
to be large and red. But in IE, it appears as a normal D. Any idea why?
I enlarged initial letters of the main menu heading works to be
x-large. In IE, they appear much larger than that (200% larger rather
than only 25% larger). Is there a way to correct this inconsistency in
the main style definition, or must I rely on a set of IE styles to
adjust the size?
In the search facility, I have the text input field set to size=40. In
IE, it is about 25% smaller than that, even though both should inherit
the "smaller" font size as the basis for calculating "40".
My aim is to have a red line at the bottom of the 640 pixel-wide body
area, but in IE the line extends across the entire window. Unclear why
this is happening.
The drop down menus cross over this line. That does not both my eye,
but do you find it offensive?
I'd appreciate any suggestions on how to improve the overall
aesthetics.

and now the menuing and links work properly.
The menu is inaccessible via keyboard, so the site will probably be
inaccessible without a mouse, unless of course the user disables CSS.
I've already decided the drop down menu was a bad idea, and you offer
yet another good reason.
My existing page is a very long <dl> list, which is a bit tedious to
navigate. I wonder if it is possible to set up hot keys, such as
typing Ctl-6 to be taken to page no. 6 on a list of pages. I know this
is not a html/xhtml/css problem, but if you would be kind enough to
indicate the options, it would start me off in the right direction.

drop down, but enough to obscure the menu choice.

I've spent FAR too much time trying to figure this out...PLease help!
The goal of the following code is to retrieve a very simple arraylist
and display it in a drop down menu. The reason I am doing it this way
is because the selections need to be stored in the DB and the code that
comprises them to work. Anyway, this is the code:
