Style not showing in Win IE

There are some style classes that are not appearing in Windows IE, but is in Safari and Firefox. I have had sometimes to put the full heirarchy of classes/divs in order for styles to work in IE, but this isn't working either. And I don't understand why.

Here is the page (inside the 'Recent Web Work' block):

The specific class is a.dnl-title, and due to frustration I outlined the whole directory of styles to point to ti:

div#wrap-a div#wrap-b div#wrap-c div#wrap div#wrap-inner div#main-body div#content div.inside div.user6split2 div.modulemidS div div div div.dnl-whole ul.dnl div.dnl-each div.dnl-title li.arrow-dnl a.dnl-title {
margin: 0 0 0 0;
padding: 0 0 0 0;
vertical-align: text-top;
color:#FFF;
}

I even tried doing an inline style, but it still didn't appear.
 
I think you would just need to give the <ul> element a [tt]position: relative;[/tt]. That usually helps with the IE's ability to hide certain elements on the page.

But what I would really suggest is a redesign of the page. When I look at the design of your page, I see the brown 'Recent Web Work' as the third box in the hierarchy but it is actually 14th or something. That scares me.

With 31 validation errors you got pretty well off for having such a bloated coding on your site.
 
The problem with a redesign is that we are running Joomla as the CMS, and there's only so much I can alter stylesheet wise.

Thanks for the assistance, though.
