Header frustration

[Ryk]

I really could use some advice as to why the header in www.chicapparel.co.uk displays so differently in IE & FF before I tear the rest of my rapidly thinning hair out!

Except for the Shopping Basket location and the padding of the nav bar directly under it I do not see any great difference.

Is it the Shopping Basket location display that you are refering to?

I am viewing in FF rv:1.8.0.6 and IE 6.0.2900.2180

It's specifically the navbar which needs to be raised in FF

Hi Ryk

It looks to me as though your problem is down to inconsistent browser defaults, specifically for the UL tag.

I recommend setting a margin-top of 0 for #additionalNav ul (which will bring the nav bar up in FF) and personally I thought that the site looked better with the relative positioning removed.

Thanks for that - and the advice in the PM - and I agree on the look, but the client requests...

Having followed your suggestions kuroi, I've made the header completely tableless...and I still have problems in getting the 2 browsers to display anywhere near close to the same. The problem is with the 2 navbars.

The site is www.chicapparel.co.uk - any suggestions are most welcome.
