IE vs FF Nav issue

The main nav underneath the image is causing me a few headaches.

As you will see they dont match up, as the buttons in FF are away from the eeft, whilst the gap that in mozilla on the lft of the nav is then rolled over and runs off the right.

There is also a greater space in IE than FF underneath the nav,and cant work that out either.

Any ideas guys?

Cheers

Most likely because IE and FF have different default margin and padding values and you are not explicitly overriding those values. (Except for the top and left margin).

I'm only viewing in IE6 (cause that's all we have at work).

Looks the same in IE7 and FF2. I expect you're seeing the differences in IE6. That will probably be attributed to many bugs in IE6 display model. I don't have IE6 right now to test and cannot see any clear culprit in the code.

The bottom menu is shifted in FF because you apply no padding-left on it (if FF this defaults to 40px, in IE to 0).
