Specials side box showing only on IE7, outside the template...

Our Specials sidebox is no longer working properly.

It does not display in FF, IE8 and Google Chrome, it does display in IE7, but out to the side of the template (I got a screen shot from a friend that shows this).

Can anyone help me in determining why?

Thank you.

Re: Specials side box showing only on IE7, outside the template...

I am really perplexed on this one. How can it be that only one side box is not working properly?

Does anyone have some possible suggestion about where I should start looking for what is creating this issue?

Thank you! :smile:

Re: Specials side box showing only on IE7, outside the template...

If I eliminate all the styling in this element, the box pops over where it belongs in all browsers, so ...

#specials { / Specials Link /
float: left;
position:absolute;
width : 17em;
height: 11em;
margin-left: 23em;
margin-top: .75em;

}

I suspect it's the absolute postion thing, and/or the 23em of left margin.
