sourced .js files and IE 8.0/ActiveX

[PaulNY2]

Hi
I have HTML pages with a left nav. bar that is sourced in a separate .js file. Using IE 8.0 and Windows 7 and accessing the page from a web server, the browser is not displaying a <HR> that is above some content and is miss-displaying other content. The page is below:

http://www.colonie.org/library/digitalLibrary/materials/index.html

Also, when I access the same file locally, it prompts me to activate Active X to enable the content. But even after I do this, it still miss-aligns the HTML code and moves things around.

Does anyone know of a way to both prevent both the prompt to activate Active X and to enable proper presentation of the HTML?

Note: this does not happen with earlier versions of IE and Windows XP and does not happen with Firefox at all.

Getting rid of the "UL.MenuBarVertical LI.MenuBarItemIE" rule fixes it for me.

With the rule in place, you need to clear your floats... but I don't see why you have that rule anyway, so I'd just remove it.

Hope this helps,
Dan

Oops... I forgot to post these URLs on easy clearing, should you decide not to remove that CSS:
