IE6 Jumping Links problem

[tinggg]

Hi

The links in my right-hand column jump upwards when I hover over them.

After doing some reading online I understand that this is an IE6 bug but I haven't been able to fix it. I believe I need to change my CSS, can anyone help with where I need to change it and what I need to change it to? Many thanks

Can you give us a link to the page in question and tell us which css relates to the menu in question?

You are changing the margin on hover. What are you expecting to happen?

Yes the jump is intentional with the main navigation but the problem is occurring with the right-hand nav, here's the html

<div class="right-column-short">


<a class="green-button" href="apply.html">Apply for a licence</a>

<div class="link-follow" style="margin-bottom: 15px;"><a href="about.html" title="About the Licence">Find out more about a licence</a></div>
<div class="link-follow"><a href="consultations.html" title="Consultations and feedback">Give Feedback</a></div>



</div><!-- end right column -->

Fixed with:

<div class="right-column-short"><p><a class="green-button" href="apply.html">Apply for a licence</a></p>
