Aaaargh! IE + Spry Menu = My Personal Hell! Help?!

okay, i've searched through these forums trying find solution problem, , while did find on 200 posts related issue, couldn't find solution...

 

...maybe can help?

 

i've got simple vertical spry menu always works in safari (mac , pc), chrome, firefox (mac , pc) , opera. naturally i'm having problems explorer (7 , 8). i've cleared out cache/browsing history/temporary files countless times, hoping problem clear once re-upload css , html files, no avail.

 

the page in question here: http://www.electronicgraphicsgroup.com/page.html

 

the problem i'm having spaces appear between menu buttons (exposing tell-tale yellow background) , second- , third tier buttons not visible. what's stranger menu work - sometimes. craps out on me. i've reloaded of files related site several times (i'm in process of major redesign), , since 100% of company's staff uses ie have work 100% of time. not using spry menu not option, nor screaming head off in obscenity-soaked tirade run on office in fit of anger...

 

i've run page through http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/ , received warnings iframe, not affect page. wish had found problems - point me in right direction!

 

i'm using dw cs3 spry 1.6.1.

 

can out? anyone?

ie uses different basic settings margins, padding, etc. in fact no 2 browser same, why many css 'hack's' around, , why if styles overwrite other css styles in css script, 'odd' behavior can occur.

one solution start yor css css reset, , whenever attach css file or change css should review it.

 

for info on css reset see: http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/css/reset/

 

another solution use ie conditional statments change css ie specific settings

format ie conditional statment is:

<!--[if ie]>
<style type="text/css">
enter revised style here
</style>
<![endif]-->
