Hi guys,

I've got a slight issue with this website http://www.peninsula-mrcpsych.org.uk/

Unfortunately the client has told me it needs to work with IE6 - I've used adobe browser labs and can see that the main drop down navigation menu jumps position when viewed in IE6.

I know I can use a conditional statement

<!--[if lte IE 6]>
<link rel="stylesheet" media="all" type="text/css" href="css/dropdown_ie.css" />
<![endif]-->

but I can't get the new dropdown_ie.css files contents to be used, (just testing to get body color to pink first) I think I'm getting the address wrong or somethings missing.

Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated..

no-one?... hmm, then any tips on debugging it, it would be ideal if IE had a firebug like add-on, but at the moment its tricky debugging something 'blind' - ie making a change that changes nothing for Firefix, then getting a screen grab from browser-labs, or render engine - hoping that something is different, its painstaking!
