Nav Bar Question

I have managed to put a pop up menu into my Nav Div (770px wide), however the
pop up menu is aligned to the left of the Nav DIV. Is there any way of getting
it more central? Ideally I would like there to be a space of 175px before the
pop up menu is displayed. I have tried changing some of the CSS code in an
attempt to move the pop up menu, but nothing seems to be working. Please can
someone help me out here?

Cheers

Stuart

I guessed at your code but all I could come up with was -

<b>Hello</b>

Can you help me out?

Hi All,

Sorted the above problem out after having a look at W3Schools website... used
the left padding, which is strange as I am sure thats what I did before and it
didn't work. Oh well.

I now have another problem. Firefox and Netscape display what I have done so
far exactly as planned, however when I look at the website in IE6 it is all
over the place. For a start the horizontal menu is displayed vertically, and
also for some reason the banner above seems to have been extended by about
200px with a white background (the banner color is blue). Does anyone know how
I can correct these problems so that IE6 displays my web pages as normal?

Cheers

Stuart

Setting up your NAV div's "padding-left" property to 175px using css is gonna
solve your problem. (I guess)

For Instance;
<!--Nav Div Starts-->
<div style="padding-left:175px">Your Menu</div>
<!--Nav Div Ends-->

Mozilla & IE have different box models. It's possible padding property to mess
your site up while you view it in IE. Instead of using padding try to put your
"Menu" another div inside the NAV DIV and give some margins to div that you
newly added.

Not in standards mode.

Thanks Alper... do you know what is going wrong with IE6? Is this a bug or do you know if its something I am doing wrong? I assume its a bug as Firefox and Netscape display perfectly.

ooopps didn't realised that you had replied to me. I'll look into this. Thanks very much mate.

It's not a bug as I wrote above.

Not on pages with valid and complete doctypes, however.
