Hi Guys,
Please look at this page and tell me why my background is no longer centered
when viewed through IE. Everything looks fine in Firefox. I have the background
coded to be positioned center top in the head of the page. Something is really
screwy about this one.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,

The background is centered for me in IE7, but it doesn't look like it until
you notice the horizontal scrollbar (browser window 1000px wide).
I moved the horizontal scroller to the right until the scroller was
centered and saw the background was centered for the actual page width,
which is much wider than in FF.
Also, the nested tables ( Music by Ken, and We can also provide...) seem to
have moved to the left and out of their container table. Strange.

The problem appears to be related to the Flash menu.
I removed the relative positioning here:
<div id="f-source-menu" style="position:relative;">
so it looked like this:
<div id="f-source-menu">

The scrollbar disappeared, the tables aligned again and it looked like it
did in FF.

I did this locally with just your raw code and the js but didn't have the
actual flash file, but it's worth testing to see if it fixes the issue.

Take care,
Tim


I removed the flash menu from <object> ....to <object> and the page went
back to the same size in IE than it is in FF.
The tables also
